Classic Charleston Gifts & Gallery

Very cute little gift shop right in the heart of Charleston across from the City Market.
Hubby and I visited recently, and attempting to «walk off» an incredible meal from Fig, meandering in here as they were one of the few non-​food establishments still open one evening.
If your idea of travel souvenirs is a little more upscale than bad t-​shirts and beach momentos that were probably made in China, then you’ll agree this is a nice little stop to consider.
We purchased a cool black art piece that is a photographer done by a local photographer, reprinted onto canvas that is stretched over a solid block, and distressed ever so slightly. The result is a cool, original reminder of a fun visit that works as a tabletop stand alone or on a wall. MarthaBlox, I think it was called, and only $ 35 for a very neat «Angel Oak» piece. I would’ve enjoyed also purchasing some wrought iron photos as well for a collage, but hubby always has to keep me in check (or he thinks he does).
The staff was super nice and friendly, even though it was getting late and I’m sure they were tired. It’s always so nice to see real enthusiasm from retail associates, and encounter folks who really seem to enjoy their jobs. And when you can do that, support a local indepent merchant, and come home with a cool souvenir, all the better.
Stop in and see them, you’ll be glad you did!

I enjoyed this little shop filled with artwork, jewelry, and a few other craft type items. It is probably geared to the tourist, but that worked for me. We did buy 2 pieces of artwork that were VERY reasonably priced. Small and welcoming, friendly sales people ~ nice collection of items. Great last stop.
