The Perish Trust bills itself as a modern day general store, and is full of unique curios, home goods, handicrafts, and “original heirlooms.” It’s an impressive storehouse of Americana, or, repurposed Americana. Founded by a team of photographers and designers, the store is guided by a mission of collecting well-worn home goods and unique handmade items. Some items are new, while some are old. However, each is tinged with nostalgia for an “authentic California heritage,” and the store exudes the same effect.
A riot of teacups dominates this quaint store packed to the proverbial rafters with antique porcelain. Teacups and saucers line window shelves and inside there are stacks of plates, serving platters and some silver service, as well as estate jewelry, crystal and entirely charming objects d'art. You will find Royal Doulton, Wedgewood and other well-known hallmarks too. There are also a few occasional tables (the perfect place to perch your purchase). This is a great place to complete a china set or start a mix-and-match collection of classics. The proprietor is as charming as his stock.
