👍 Great place to find gift and souvenirs. The owner, Bülent, was very friendly... he event offered us some coffee! Sooo many things to choose from: rings, pendants, earing, necklaces, chandeliers, and other things from Turkey. There's some pricey stuff but there's many other good options. People often mention store, Great, beautiful, items, friendly, owner, nice, prices, unique, rings,

    Very nice artwork rings things from turkey. You really get a perspective of what you can in their culture. Great lights hanging lights if it fits your decor of your home. Easy walk-in things are kind of tight so be careful if you're in the wheelchair or with a cane. It might be kind of tight to get around without knocking things over

    Great items but bad service. Gentleman was rude multiple times but the lady was friendly. Won't be going back due to the guy checking me out. I'll buy online for better prices instead. Lantern is also glued crooked, so buyer beware.

    Beautiful store with many decorative items, the prices are a bit steep depending on what you want. Overall you get what you pay for and the quality of most items are very high. The owner was very friendly and let us shop around in peace.

    Great store! Chill vibe and beautiful merchandise.

  • 2/5 Adrea 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful items, but there was a male clerk that was very rude. When we entered the establishment he did not greet us, but stared nastily. When other people entered he greeted them immediately. Not fond of discrimatory experiences.

  • 5/5 TJ H. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this store. Everything in it has a unique quality. The jewelry is my favorite.

  • 5/5 Lauren L. 1 year ago on Google

    Clean, friendly, and very unique items that you would not be able to find and other places. Great prices for what the items are.

  • 5/5 Stacey W. 4 years ago on Google
    Wow, I fell in love with this place! Spent an hour in there, but could have spent all day! Everything was colorful and beautiful.. The store owner was nice and helpful but not pushy. Told me a wonderful story about a ring I picked out. I purchased some unique and lovely jewelry, as well as a stunning plate. I will go back any time I am in Columbus for sure!!

    Great selection of quality rugs, furnishings, and jewelry. Max sources his imports from longtime suppliers. Very pleased with all our purchases.

  • 5/5 Katy C. 7 years ago on Google
    I felt like I was back in Istanbul when I walked into this shop. It's beautiful and the owner is extremely friendly. He's got literally everything you can find in Turkey.

  • 5/5 Claire P. 5 years ago on Google
    I've been to this store twice and honestly I think it's one of the more worth it places of the short North since the shop owner is so friendly and the pieces are affordable.

  • 5/5 Nicholas S. 5 years ago on Google
    Great store I bought a set of black handcrafted bracelets that look and feel amazing. The store is very clean colorful and full of great things like jewelry, rugs, swords and more. Also when you buy something they give you a free pin with a blue glass eye for good luck. Also the man working there was extremely nice and friendly.

  • 5/5 Rebecca T. 6 years ago on Google
    The owner does his own buying from Turkey and nearby. Nicely made stuff.

  • 5/5 Lisa Keyser V. 6 years ago on Google
    Love this store. Great owners and really unique nice things at good prices

  • 5/5 Buxi 6 years ago on Google
    There is SO much to see in this little shop, it's overwhelming! And it's all so beautiful. And the owners are so kind - last time I stopped by, they gave me a cup of the tea they were drinking (delicious!) to sip on while I browsed the store. It's the best place to shop for an accent piece or a unique and beautiful gift.

  • 5/5 Jeff M. 6 years ago on Google
    A fantastic treasure. Most of the designs are colorful and brightly decorated, I like just going in to look around. Everything from beautiful lamps and rugs to clothing and coffee cups (which make great gifts).

    The owner, Bulent, is a really friendly guy, he served us some hot tea while browsing. He also has a wide variety of items in there.

    On two separate occasions the guy at the register tried to change the price of marked items. I came up with a $10 pillow cover and he tried to say they were actually $30. When I pointed out they both had $10 tags he back tracked and said someone else must've changed them behind his back and sized me up to see if he should try to get me to pay extra anyway. On the other occasion the guy told me he'd give me a deal for a coffee set at only $45. the set I was trying to buy was marked at $25 and when I pointed that out he said I was misreading it (I left without buying anything). On another occasion maybe four-ish years ago I took pictures of my friend while we were inside and when we went up to pay for some rings he tried to say $10 a picture and when I made it clear I wouldn't pay for any pictures and if he kept pushing it I wouldn't buy the rings either, he let it go. These interactions are each from a few years ago, but a friend recently went and also said she didn't buy anything because the clerk changed the prices multiple times while talking to her, so it reminded me. You can get much better prices online.

👍👍 I went in to get my very first tattoo earlier today. I had Rob and he did an absolutely amazing job. Not only was everyone inside the building extremely friendly but also helpful as well. Rob was very professional and there wasn’t a second where I doubted anything during the process. Would recommend...
