It's on the small side, but they have a nice selection of home decor, serving pieces, glassware, kitchen items, wall art, furniture, clothing (both women's & men's), shoes and accessories. I recommend following them on Instagram for regular updates on what they have in stock. They sometimes have sales and put out themed items based on the season or holidays. Their prices were very reasonable, too. The store is well organized, clean and well-lit, and staff was very nice and helpful. Check 'em out!

Many of their items are tropical themed, but not all, and they have a variety of items to appeal to all ages and budgets.

The lady working there (possibly the owner?) was very nice and helpful.

Would that I could, I'd walk in and make it rain SO hard, but I do manage to treat my self! Eryngium is a bleeping WONDERLAND!! One of my dearest longtime friends introduced me to Eryngium when I first moved to Portland last summer. Since then, I'm always scheming for reasons to visit from SW Portland. The shop is *exquisitely* appointed with an incredible variety of paper, ephemera, rubber stamps, a plethora of writing instruments (swoon fountain pens), inks, copious stationery, stickers, {takes a shuddering breath}, washi tape, vintage postage stamps, journals, stunning jewelry, and itty bitty heart-adored paperclips for crying out loud! {dabs sweat from brow} If you are a stationery aficionado, get thyself to Eryngium Papeterie. Aside from the beautiful space and luscious stationery finery, the owner, Crystal, is an adorable marvel-- warm, welcoming, hilarious, helpful, and clearly loves her work. The entire team is lovely and kind. This is hands-down the best stationery wonderland I've had the delight to visit and shop in my lifetime. Eryngium Papeterie is a beacon of hope, joy, and light for those of us who enjoy the slow, intentional connection of handwritten correspondence and reflection.

If you need it to write, Eryngium has it! I went in one day to look for postcards since I got into penpalling and this was the closest store, having seen the instagram page from a recommendation on yelp I was very interested to see what was inside, I was very happy to see what else was there! Now I've come in and found other lovely things to buy and have stepped up my penpal game 10 fold and found other wonderful small businesses that Eryngium stocks like Portland Stamp Co! Postcards and my main love but I also keep coming back for the stickers and tiny cards as little goodies to add to bigger packages I send to international penpals. I find the cost for the quality very reasonable, as much if not all of the items are hard to find or specialty, and I don't see any price gouging or mark ups! I highly recommend you come in and take a look at all the amazing things in this store, you could get lost looking in every tiny drawer and all the small ephemera in them. A paper-lover's paradise!

The clothing is made right there so you won't find other people walking around in the same outfit! The styles and patterns are unique but not too quirky. In addition to the clothing, there is a small section of locally made jewelry, lots of dangly earrings. there were some shopping totes that are the perfect size. And packs of a towels , a dozen, made out of super soft cotton. The patterns are so pretty - especially the sunflowers - and I would use them as dinner napkins. Service is friendly, helpful but never intrusive. I'm not in the market for this type of clothing right now - retired and living in leggings and comfy tops - but if I need a dress for an occasion, I'll definitely come back.

Eccentric is absolutely the right word for this fantastic little vintage boutique on Main Street,…read morethat has been here for...quite some time. The hand-selected articles of clothing, hats, jewelry and accessories available here are certainly quirky, but also fashionable and functional. Whomever curates the collection here has an eye for the theatrical and flamboyant; many of the items here could easily double as Halloween costume components. There's no shortage of vintage clothing stores in the Portland metro area, but many of them charge truly outrageous prices for scraps and rags that only the most unaffected urchin would be caught dead wearing. Thankfully, that's not the case here: there's something for everyone, from casual to formal, grounded to glamorous, simple to sophisticated. Prices range from reasonable to unbelievably cheap (they even have a $1 rack with clothes that don't suck?! how), making the Urban Eccentric a budget-friendly bargain hunter's dream.
