Dept. of Small Gems. Forget the riots over Tompkins Square park, the East Village is full of pretty things and people who just want to nest. Lancelotti Housewares is a small store that is blazing a trail towards home improvement with fashionable housewares for urban dwellers. MGR

I am sad to see the comments above but now that they are a year old I will say that things are really different at that store, which is one of my favorite in the East Village. The two guys that work there are really friendly, and help with suggestions on design and what is new in the store. It does not matter if I am going in for a set of glasses or wanting to know the price of the tables in the window, I am always welcomed with a smile. Where the prices may be a little high, I would rather support a small mom and pop store then Bed Bath and Beyond. And it is New York City, and the product is amazing. I will most definatly shop there again! LTZ on Nov 11, 2008

People there used to be nice. Now they are mean. They quoted me a price for a blanket which translated to my ears as "in your dreams." I don't know what makes them think I can't afford their effing merino wool, but they are mistaken. I also saw a shelf there that was significantly marked up from what it cost at Bed, Bath and Beyond. It's good for design inspiration, but the actual shopping experience is potentially humiliating. RL on Feb 4, 2007
