Between Caracas and Porchetta, Butter Lane and the Big Gay Ice Cream Shop, there are plenty of reasons we often find ourselves on the block of 7th street between First and A in the East Village. And each time we’re there I find myself wishing we had more time to linger and look around in a neighboring design boutique called Still House.
The owner and curator, Urte, has lovingly assembled collections of home accessories, jewelry, and gifts–mostly by local artisans or up-and-coming artists. Her background in jewelry-making seems to lend to her eye for the delicate. Minimal wood-shelving bears geometric glass vases with air plants and other succulents among items like leather goods and carved pyrite. It’s such a beautiful, hand-selected assortment of items. And such a lovely addition to an already stellar block!
Still House, 117 East 7th Street
