Disappointingly overpriced.Many of these items are mass produced and the same brands can be found significantly cheaper elsewhere. Arrogant and unfriendly manager, a shop that is really just style over substance. Sadly, more smoke and mirrors than looking glass.

Fascinating and packed shop full of things I've not seen before, some tasteful, others a bit too bling for me. Helpful staff.
