Bae
We admire the way Bae's co-owner, David Caler, describes himself: "a weird guy who likes weird things." One's own quirky taste is the most important guiding light you can have when taking on an aesthe...

La Petite Chaise
About a year ago, La Petite Chaise moved from Mountain View's Castro Street and set up shop in a funky little space right across Central Expressway. Until recently they held sales just one weekend a ...
Tancredi & Morgen
Our favorite shop on the Monterey Peninsula is Tancredi & Morgen. Tucked away in a funky little shopping center in Carmel Valley, this jewel of a find is actually only a few minutes from downtown Car...
Revival Home & Garden
In the rapidly developing but still gritty heart of Georgetown's shopping area is this gem. Revival Home & Garden is aptly named, showcasing as they do beautifully reupholstered and restored vintage ...
Flipp
We were reading SF Weekly's "Best of 2008" last week and noticed that flipp had been named the best interior design store. Startled, we wondered why we hadn't heard of it. Shoot forward ten minutes ...
Great Jones Home
We once inherited a fabulous deco-era chair from our mother, a sidewalk-sale savant. It was beautiful but had no cushions, thereby initiating our first foray into the world of upholstery. Upholstery...
San Pablo Flea Market
It's not that we don't appreciate the finer side of collecting, but there's something oh-so-satisfying about digging through a pile of possible discards and pulling out that perfect chair in need of ...
Lucca Great Finds
Lucca Great Finds is the second Lucca store of owners Francine Katz and Peter Riches, whose first venture, Lucca Statuary, brought classic European garden statues to the Northwest in 1991. The newe...
Pimlico Place
Shopping at Pimlico Place is kind of what we imagine it would be like to shop at our great-aunt's house, if we had a glamorous great-aunt with excellent taste who had traveled extensively around the ...
Uhuru Furniture and Collectibles
The perfect place to hunt for your next rehab project (to get a headstart for next year's January Jumpstart perhaps?) or find a hidden gem in already perfect condition, Uhuru Furniture and Collectibl...
Mickey's Monkey
(Welcome again to Leah, one of the finalists in our San Francisco Blogger search.Comment away!) We all have our secret sources for furnishing our home. Walk into Mickey's Monkey in the Lower Haight...
San Francisco Antique and Design Mall
We hadn't been to the San Francisco Antique and Design Mall since it opened about 10 years ago. It was recommended to us by AT:SF reader Vince, who moved his two booths there after Antique Trove cl...
Flutter
Flutter is what Anthropologie wishes it was: eclectic, tongue-in-cheek sweet, where everything looks like it was found in the attic of an adventurer from a bygone era. The store carries a selection...
Veritables
Veritables is a two-pronged outfit: owner Marie Harris’ Madison home boutique focuses on lighting and oriental-flavored accents; and, as a designer for more than 13 years, she offers consultation...
Swallowtail
Can a store be coveted and admired? Can it be an idol of design and good taste to be worshipped? If so, Russian Hill's Swallowtail is definitely our latest idol. We have loved this shop from the da...
Clover House
Its always a lucky day at Clover House. Throws, lamps and home accessories form the complement of wares at a shop where the real highlights are the plants, high-quality body products and a fantasti...
Cargo Incorporated
Sometimes good things come by the container load. The importer of primarily asian wares and antique pieces doesnt sell much on their website (we counted a whopping six items), but dont let that fo...
Watson Kennedy Fine Living
A walk through Watson Kennedy induces the best kind of browsing stupor, where every shelf holds a new hidden treasure, as if it were planted there just for you to find and make special. The kind of...
La Petite Chaise
If you're on the lookout for vintage home and garden items, and you're not interested in paying City prices, consider taking a drive down the Peninsula. You probably already know about Janakos and Co...
AREA
AREA's a breath of fresh (outdoor) air in the traditionally stuffy and serious Jackson Square design scene. This is a store that caters to the senses: walk in, smell the slow-release scent of a Her...
Antique Society
One of our favorite places in the North Bay is Sebastopol's Antique Society. The 20,000-square foot store is so full of good stuff that you can lose quite a lot of your afternoon after stepping insid...
Eden & Eden
When Rachel Eden opened the Eden & Eden design store in Jackson Square last year, she had in mind a showcase for all the quirky, fun, and beautiful treasures that she herself had collected over the ye...
Kiosk
For a change of pace, we offer for your perusal, a quirky little shop, Kiosk. Featuring a range of products from a new country every four to five months, as well as some ongoing items, the online (an...
Maison d'Etre
Maison d'Etre is one of our very favorite stores. After our latest visit (just yesterday), we were trying to pinpoint what makes shopping there -- or even merely browsing -- such a satisfying experie...
Rejuvenation Hardware
If you live in an older building and favor historical and/or aesthetic continuity, Portland and Seattle-based Rejuvenation Hardware is a terrific resource. Specializing in period-authentic lighting, h...
