Grasshopper & Wild Honey

There are places where you can get very elegant pieces. This is one of those places. From the authentic steins to the glassware and exotic pieces. Everything is displayed well and spaciously set apart.
I wanted to upgrade the look in my living room and this place is going to help me do that. The only problem now is that I have to upgrade my stands to reflect the appeal the glass frogs have.

Nice place with a lot of nice things. Most of which are way over priced & the 3 – 4 times I’ve been in there the women are pretty rude.

Lots of neat items to look at. Silver jewelry, small wooden boxes ($ 200!), various pottery items, and a huge selection of beer steins. All prices are a bit on the high side (expected as much being on Main St).
Bought a very unique ~5×7″ mixed wood clipboard for just under $ 30 (I always have an ugly stack on notes on my desk held together by a paperclip, so the clipboard is a big step up). Beautiful and well-​made.
The store owners were cordial; however, they didn’t seem particularly enthusiastic at all about having customers in their store. Maybe I didn’t spend enough money. Merp. ;-)
Worth checking out when in F*Burg.

I am really glad I wandered into this shop on my first trip to Fredericksburg — here’s why:
1 — Selection — G&WH has a variety of offerings from jewelry to beer steins, woodwork to pottery.
2 — FINALLY a place where the prices make sense! I got a beautiful clay piece for $ 50 when I was expecting the typical outrageous boutique pricing of $ 100 – 150.
3 — Service — the saleswomen were courteous, helpful, and didn’t hover over us. We were able to spend at least 20min just checking things out without being interrupted.
Overall, there were many pieces I would like in my home, and I will be back next time I am in Fredericksburg. Even though there was some stuff that I thought was tacky or really not my style, the overall shop has many gift options and is worth exploring.

Their website states that they are a «gallery of fine gifts from around the world.» I have found this store to be one of my favorite places to go to when I am in Fredericksburg for the day with friends or family. I first got interested in this place from their window. I felt like I was a kid again looking in at the window display ogling over everything. Inside is even a bigger treat! They have a huge collection of beer steins and many Christmas Nutcrackers. Last year they had this beautiful pool table made out of wood that would make anyone cry. I had family with me this time and said «you have to see the pool table» so we went in, but alas it had been sold. Some Longhorn fan is taking in the sheer beauty of it now. It has been replaced by some phenomenal pieces of furniture.
What I love mostly about the store is that they carry my favorite jewelry line. I picked up yet another piece for my growing collection of Jewelry John bells and lamented that I didn’t have enough money to buy 4 more that I have had my eye on for some time.
This is a wonderful store to get good quality gifts. If you don’t have a clue what to give your loved one for Christmas, just go in here and you will find something they would enjoy. I know I will be going back soon before the holidays to pick up a few things.
