Shifting to Pune from Bombay was a tough decision to make 9 years back. There are still times when i feel Bombay to be more like my place than here and there are times when i cant thank myself enough for shifting!
Over the years i have been on my little journey discovering and finding new places/ stores/ restaurants/ getaways of my interest and i keep discovering something new every time i step out!
One such place that i found was ' THE ART SHOP'.
A lovely store tucked away on Baner Pashan link road. The store was started by a couple Devesh and Amisha in 2010. Devesh had always loved art and thought that some day when he retires he will open an art store! well it did happen earlier than that !
Devesh travels all over India and hand picks the pieces for his store. The store has an amalgamation of art, artifacts, ceramics, jewellery, outdoor furniture and home furnishings.
From Brass Buddha's to Ganesha's you are sure to find metal in all forms in the store and to match them are a range tastefully lotus printed cushions.
Tea light holders and embroidered cushions in whites and beige are my favorites at the store.
Small boxes, tableware and lamps in blue pottery of Jaipur are perfect gifts for any occasion.
If you are an outdoor person and love to spend time in your balcony, terrace or patio, do visit them for their durable, all weather outdoor furniture. Devesh will be happy to show you the wide range of chairs, swings, loungers available and guess what they will be happy to customize the furniture to your preference.
And to ice the cake they are introducing a section for home furnishing this weekend !
The Art Shop now houses beautiful curtains made in hand woven cotton which are block printed by artisans in Kolkata; They now house drapes in silk, woven jacardes, cotton and silk blends, chanderi and yes the list goes on.
There is an array of cushions to select from - They have cotton silks, silks, embroidered, hand block printed, cottons and many more.
Among all of this you are sure to find bed linen, bed covers, throws, table mats, table cloths and table runners.
The list can go on but i would highly recommend you to visit this lovely space and experience it yourself.
Do visit over the weekend and i assure you , you will find something for your lovely homes.
The address is -
