"This beloved Berkeley shop is a total institution. It's packed to the gills, but gorgeous: You’ll find paper lanterns and garlands, antique chandeliers, birdhouses, religious effigies, anything and everything, all in one big, romantic and wild display. The estate jewelry is particularly stunning. Photo Credit: @_momoca_"

This little shop is pure magic. A delight for all of the senses one can truly lose and then find oneself here. I now live on the east coast but make a special trip to Berkeley whenever I’m in California just to go to Tail of the Yak. Truly a one of a kind experience.
