I ended up choosing a handmade metal floating frame and it ended up being less expensive than the quotes I got from two other frame stores nearby for plain black frames. The painting was done by a friend who wrote a note on the back of the canvas and without my asking, Igor put a plastic window on the back of the frame so we could read the note, so thoughtful!!

But it is his most recent work that transforms the space and the viewer. These pieces bring to life the details of lines, colors and movement left behind by receding ocean waves. These dramatic images create the landscapes of another world - haunting, yet familiar, the reflect the forces of nature that shape our world. One stands before these images transformed. Slowly the impact of the images gives way to the sense or the craft and artistry that it took to bring out the subtleties of the elements that were captured and lift the veil to see our world anew.

The shop itself has some interesting works, however, the experience as a customer was unfortunately…read moredisappointing. The store attendant/owner was incredibly rude to my partner - a polite inquiry about the price of a piece and any possible discount was met with an exaggerated exclamation of "No! No!" and being instructed with a bit of a condescending tone to put the piece back. A far kinder and more respectful response would have been more appropriate, welcoming, and effective (something like the following would have been more called for: 'no, I'm sorry that is the price I must sell it for, let me know if you're still interested or if i can show you another piece at your price point'). After the reaction, as my partner was putting the piece back and we were already moving toward the door leaving, the attendant/owner half-heartedly offered the piece could still be had (for the stated price), but the damage was already done. Though it is hard to know for certain, and she could have been having a bad day or have this character with everyone and would like to give benefit of the doubt, it is possible that there were some unconscious racial dynamics involved as my partner is a Person of Color. My partner felt deeply embarrassed/humiliated and upset - and the incident left a bad taste. Warning to others and suggest the owner/attendant to examine their behavior toward customers and to treat them with respect and kindness.

There's a soft incense scent in the air mixed with bundles of sage and palo santo. Shelves have beautiful crystals: amethyst clusters- which I got one to bring to our new home in Westchester, there's rose quartz I think, citrine and a few others. Along with spiritual candles for relaxation or just creating a peaceful vibe. You'll also find handmade jewelry, small brass bells, lots of essential oils and other unique items that make it super easy to bring a little calmness into everyday life. But what really makes Custom C. special is the owner who's kind and easy to talk to. I wanted her advice on which Quartz to buy for bringing positive energy into our new home and suggested an amethyst. Here the thing- she has $15 amethyst, 20s, 40s and up and she was never pushy for me to get a pricier piece. At $45 for my amethyst, I was ready to display it in my new home. So whether you're into spirituality or just browsing out of curiosity, she totally makes everyone feel comfortable and welcome.
