Mulberry & Lime

Granted, you are bound to run into some pretentious Lexington people here, but the owner, Mary, makes all shoppers feel welcome. I come here for gifts maybe twice a year, and I wish I could be here more often. Mulberry and Lime (M-​L) is a great store in an historic family home on Limestone Street in downtown Lexington. What I like about the store is both the display and the quality of the goods. No mass-​produced, made in China disposable crap here. The emphas is on quality linens, writing paper, gifts, and china, and artwork
M-​L has a wedding registry, carries antiques, and there is a great selection of local art. This is a great place to get a gift for a female friend, a wife, a mother, a daughter, but there is cool stuff for men here, too. The owner is preservation-​minded which makes me like her all the more, and the gift wrap is unique. You’ll have no problem finding the store next to the Sayre School. There are always textiles hanging from the line in front to signal that M-​L is open. This is the kind of store Lexington deserves. If only M-​L had a small place to eat or have a drink, I think more people would come to this Lexington gem.
I like the Moe’s bowtie selections, and now there is some great art from Lexington artist Tuska. The giftwarap is always great.
Hats off to this locally owned business.
