"Bell’Occhio, with its French-y, almost fantastical vibe, looks like a shop you might have walked into, in say, 1895, on a hidden, cobbled street in Montparnasse, Paris. For over 26 years, the shop has enticed customers with antique ribbons and stationery, French sewing supplies, and elegant gift wrap, the gift wrapping services to go with, not to mention calligraphy services courtesy of a former White House calligrapher. And should you want an even bigger slice of the fantasy, they offer interior design services, too."
Such a beautiful store. I felt like I was transported into the curious and marvelous world of Amelie (french film). Everything is so detailed and made with love. You feel like this gem has been around for decades, and it has! Over 30 years. Definitely go and spend time in this little treasure chest.

If you are in San Francisco you should really go by this shop. A little hard to find but well worth the effort. Great things - gifts from not very much to more expensive. And the interiors of the place are really cool.
The lady who runs it is so nice and helpful. I got a bone orange peeler. Where else would you find such a thing.
Go.

I always tell visitors to check out this unique shop just to take in all the beautiful paperie, imported knick knacks, and fine ribbonerie. Come here to get a present for an artsy friend or calligrapher. Pick up a cute gift tag and finishing touch for a special present.

Very nice selection of items with quality and good service. Street is a little sketchy but worth the effort!
