Her new co-op art studio, Studio 171, in PG is a collab among 5 family members and other local artists who consign their beautiful art as well! I purchased this beautiful ceramic whale made by an amazing local artist in this shop and I love him! The shop has many wonderful gift ideas. I swear, for an almost 79 year old woman, Cindy has more energy, motivation, passion, and commitment to her business and her customers.

The physical shop is wonderful, inviting and cozy but if you live far away like I do, shopping online has also been a great experience, with good communication and fast shipping.

Great art brands here. I was hoping for more variety for Caran D'Ache but at least they carried it! Employee was friendly. Cat was cute! Price was great at 2.50 a Neocolor. Great little find. Thank you!

Other times they're... definitely not as friendly. I told them both on separate occasions that I do loads of mediums, mentioned digital and felt like I activated a sleeper agent. Both have gone off at me saying "that's not real art". Which is understandable and, please just say that rather than that AND a 30 minute rant on how younger generations are giving up on art because they don't see many kids in there. We're not, just being told our art isn't art. The cat is the best employee. 10/10, great greeter. While the quality of the supplies is good the price is difficult. Buy pencils from here and checked the brand store online and it was $15 cheaper. Which is understandable because it's located in PG, with other crazy prices and business expenses being what they are. If you are already friends with either of the clerks you'll probably have a much better time than I.

Even though we were just window shopping, the experience here was absolutely delightful…read more From the moment we walked in, Cihat warmly welcomed us and took the time to show us around without any pressure to buy. That alone says a lot about the kind of place this is. He patiently walked us through their collection and even shared helpful tips on cleaning and maintaining Turkish chandeliers and lamps, which was genuinely appreciated and very thoughtful as we had told him that we had purchased few in the past from a different store. The collection itself is stunning containing intricate Turkish lamps, chandeliers, and fine art pieces that are rich in color, craftsmanship, and detail. Each piece feels authentic and carefully curated, making it hard not to stop and admire every corner of the store. The artistry and quality on display truly stand out. One definitely feels welcomed, informed, and respected as a visitor, whether you're browsing or buying, at their store. If you're in Monterey, this is absolutely worth a visit even if it's just to admire the craftsmanship and soak in the charm of the space. We'll definitely be back, and next time, it may be hard to leave without taking something home.
