My husband bought me a black cashmere shawl with cranes, hand embroidered by Mai. It is exquisite. Mai also makes masks with a filter between a layer of silk and cotton. Comfortable and effective. For each mask sold, she gives a contribution to an a nursing association

I like to get my dress clothes tailored to fit me better. If I get the work done at the local dry cleaner, I find the items never lay quite right after, and there's visible differences between the factory work and the tailor's sewing.

Mai tailored a pair of work pants for me, and the work came out very neat and clean. You can't tell they were altered at all. If you're a bit of a perfectionist about how your clothes fit, this place does good work.

I asked Mai to embroider a plain duvet (that I bought at Ross) with blue birds and vines to match my bedroom. It is wonderful. And she is so pleasant to work with.

Lovely little shop, well thought out, with a beautiful array of handcrafted items by this talented artist. She makes anything with silk and paint them beautifully with colorful thread!! I could have bought everything in the shop, but ended up with a hand embroidered scarf for now. I may well find her online and buy a few more for friends. Really pleased I found the shop!

Cute and beautiful little shop in North Berkeley, with very nice things to sell. Mai is a great tailor and embroidery artist, she custom makes anything from silk! If you are looking for more special, not mainstream souvenirs, don't forget to visit!

This is a lovely shop! Plenty of quality handicrafts you can find here - silk scarves, table cloths, lanterns, clothes, and fine embroidered bed linens. The shop is small but merchandises were beautifully presented and displayed. The owner, Mai was delightful, very helpful and great to talk to. Highly recommended!

I was first drawn to this special boutique by the beautiful hand embroidered bed linens & accessories. My return visits were prompted as well by the sure knowledge of the skilled craftsmanship and excellent service provided by Mai, the owner. She is a superb seamstress and will happily create your clothes to order by choosing from the wonderful array of linens, silks and cottons. There is plenty of pre-made clothes to give ideas of designs and for those lucky ones who don't have odd body shapes. All items are of the highest quality.I Will definitely be back for more!
