Part of the fun (and sometimes the drudgery) of having a retail store, is sourcing new, interesting and design savvy merchandise that you and everyone else haven’t seen before.  Easier said than done.  So I get really excited when I stumble across a product line that meets my criteria for cool.  It’s quite simple really…If I haven’t seen it before and I really love it and most of all, I would have it in my house, then write up that order.  Such is the case with Neo, hand crocheted baskets, designed and made by Rossana Contadini, out of Neoprene yarn in a variety of colors.  If you insist, they could certainly be functional, but I rather like the idea of simply displaying them for the beautiful objects that they are.

New in store at On Madison just in time for the holidays!
