Himalayan Corner

Was walking on my normal path down Market when this store caught my eye for the first time in a year – it’s really hard to miss because it’s so small. Saw a beautiful dress hanging up that kept turning my head as I walked on and eventually had to turn back. Their clothing is all handmade in India, so the detail is spectacular and much more intricate than you’ll see in other commercial stores unless you want to pay up the nose. The colors and fabrics are also brilliant. I love my new two piece dress and will probably be back.
Also, I didn’t catch the girl’s name who was working there but she was nice to chat to and didn’t pressure me at all to buy something. She also understood what kind of style I was looking for.
This shop is all family owned – support!

Tsering, the shop’s Proprietor, is astute and kind. He answers questions concisely and fully, and has the consumer’s best interests at heart. A thoughtful merchant, Tsering has successfully sourced and placed outstanding pieces — both in terms of design, quality, and craftsmanship — throughout the small shop. I always enjoy stopping-​in to pick out my favorite pieces. I can also tell you that he has not increased the price of his fine silvers, even though he could make a massive profit if he did. He told me that he prefers to be the better deal in town because that was a more balanced approach. Don’t be surprised if Tsering offers you tea.
