The shops in the SoWa Art + Design District in the South End are unlike anywhere else in the city. With an emphasis on handmade, high-quality and couture options, you won’t find any big chains in this part of town. Just flawlessly curated collections of the goodies from Boston’s most talented makers and designers.

From imported french flatware and hand-thrown ceramics to custom made engagement rings and couture fascinators, SoWa has wall-to-wall eye candy. Whatever you pick up here is sure to make a splash.
