The ceramics at Bluebird’s new location suit sleek glass shelves over mahogany cabinets. This isn’t your grandmother’s porcelain dishware.

In fact, there is nothing chintzy about this sophisticated crafts store. Jennifer Graham’s raw edged porcelain bowls (from $65) sit alongside Doug Johnston’s sculptural baskets ($95).

A Geoffrey Lilge cutting board ($180) would make a wonderful wedding gift, and for you, why not snap up a Victoria Bekerman beaded necklace ($155) or a printed silk cashmere scarf ($135) from Snapdragon?
