Thomas Mann Gallery

I don’t want to be obnoxious and say something trite like, «I really wanted to like this place, but…» BUT…
I did, in fact, like this place. The jewelry is different, it’s very modern and artistic, and I saw several pieces I would’ve loved to take home. But, like any other boutique, it’s pricey. At $ 300 for a pin, and $ 100+ for a pair of earrings, I left emptyhanded. Worth a look if you’re shopping on Magazine Street, but it’s not necessarily a destination. We stopped by here after touring the Garden District and making our way back to the CBD along Magazine.
I would probably have been more inclined to shop here and make a purchase if I weren’t on vacation and watching my dollars (somewhat) closely.
The girl working behind the counter was very friendly and offered help if we needed it. I felt comfortable and welcome here, even if it was just to briefly browse.
