After Black Friday comes Small Business Saturday. Who better to buy from than fellow WNYC listeners. Let's build a guide to local brick-and-mortar businesses using the form below. Plug away!
We don't sell things to you, we are matchmakers: we listen to your description of your friends and family, their personality, their lifestyle, and then we match a gift within your budget for each individual person. We are pretty good at it: we get less than 10 exchanges a year! We gift-wrap at no charge and we even deliver for free in Manhattan within certain guidelines. Plus, our store is brimming with beautiful, mostly hand-made objects made with love all over the world!

A wonderful store .. with the kindest proprietors ever. This store is a must for last minute gifts - for every occasion .. but warning: you will leave the store having purchased cool things for you too!
Luisa and Nicki are such an amazing part of the Hells Kitchen community -- constantly giving back to local causes in the neighborhood as well as great organizations internationally. Huge supporters of local artisans as well, you can often find local artists' work on display. Run don't walk to Domus this holiday season! Awesome selection.
I have purchased so many lovely things from Domus over the years. Many were gifts, but I confess many remain in my home. One special feature of Luisa and Nikki's beautiful store is their carefully chosen items for children. This year my Grandson's Christmas gifts will be from Domus again. These are toys and tree ornaments that they love.
I have lived in the neighborhood for over ten years and Domus is always my go-to destination for unique and beautiful gifts: birthday, child, housewarming - they have something for every occasion and every budget. Luisa and Nikki take such care in selecting every item that goes into their beautiful store and are so very kind and helpful. Our home is filled with mirrors, pillows, dishes and frames I have purchased there over the years. Whenever I go in for a gift for someone else, I find it nearly impossible to leave without something for me too. The goods, the owners and the store could not be more lovely and I couldn't recommend Domus more highly. Go now!
I have been coming to domus for years and everytime I walk into their beautiful shop I find something new and wonderful.
This is not your average gift/home store. Everything is so unique and generally has a fabulous story attached to it such as a group of women in India made it using sari scraps. I have never failed to find a gorgeous gift for a friend orchild or let's be honest -me !! If I'm not quite sure what to get I explain to N & L what I need or who it's for and they find me the right gift. They are such honest kind gentle people that I enjoy giving them all my business whenever I can. I have lost count of the compliments I get from friends when they see my Domus items and have referred many a friend to shop there. A word of warning do not think you can just be in and out in 5 mins you will be transfixed by the amount of exciting items they have for sale. I love Domus and I Love N&L !
I adore Domus and have ever since discovering it more than ten years ago. I always have a sense of enchantment when stepping in the door into the treasure trove of engaging, beautiful and unusual objects. You can tell that everything has been chosen with delight, whether linens for the table, pottery, jewelry, cushions, bags, scarves, or toys for babies and children. The owners Luisa and Nicki have a warmth and enthusiasm that awakens these feelings in the visitor; hard indeed to leave without buying something that will crisp up your home, give joy and interest and become a cherished possession. I don't know any other store quite like it.
