F. Dorian

My toddler was drawn by the store and because we are searching for a housewarming gift, we went in, he was supervised closely by myself and my husband, he touched some Christmas baubles but did not drop, or grab anything with force. the store staff was already mean mugging us when we walked in and kept saying its all glass! And watch out! Be careful Pleaaasee! He probably said it five times in the minute we were in there. I understand things are fragile but its hard to want to spend money at a place thats so unwelcoming to a well behaved child. Perhaps a sign should posted that no children under (whatever age the staff is comfortable with) allowed if everything is indeed so precious.

The owners' passion for beautiful objects is obvious in the unusual selection of items for the home and designer jewelry they offer. It is my go to place for fun cheap accessories as well as unique statement pieces. I also love the idea of supporting a small privately own store.

Like Valencia Street from 15th to 23rd streets, Hayes Street between Franklin and Laguna is an only in San Francisco retail gulch. The artisans represented in shops like F. Dorian and Maker and Moss next door are either local or consigned from great, known sources. If you want gorgeous, eclectic ceramics, textiles and glassware, hand-crafted with sharp, contemporary eyes and rustic one-off authenticity, then shop here. I bought my first piece from Dorian in 1987, and havent stopped. This grain-grinding disc, and below that, the wrought-iron dish from an old-world Japanese foundry master, are favorites I brought home from Dorian over the years.
