Make Virtu a Necessity
We've all heard of the term 'retail therapy,' shopping for the purpose of improving your mood. Often, shopping while you're feeling down has less to do about what you're buying but rather how those purchases make you feel.
Shopping for gifts at Virtu is an incredibly soothing experience. Soft music plays as you browse through fine-quality artisan wares. This charming gift shop (across the street from Red Dog House) carries 'a curious collection of fine craft,' with everything from hand-carved spoons to ceramic tea sets. A wide variety of handmade jewelry is available from designers all over the country, and elegant glass-blown vases will look just as beautiful in your home as they do in the store. Virtu is the perfect place to find a wedding presents, thank you offerings, or 'just because' gifts… even if they're just to yourself!
If you can't make it to the store itself, Virtu offers a catalog online and can ship packages within the continental U.S. They'll even gift wrap it for you if you like.
Virtu helps make shopping for gifts just as delightful as receiving them.
