When you enter Phoenix Charm, you feel like you are in a classic oriental home, and experience instant tranquility.
This boutique store selling home dcor items such as curtains, dining table sets, bed runners, cushions and lamp shades, draws a lot from Chinese folk culture.
From a fish-shaped cloth light shade, a porcelain vase in the shape of a woman in traditional costume and an embroidered silk tissue container to a carved wooden wine holder, wall hangings of clay masks and straw doilies, the items embody some element or other of traditional Chinese culture, without sacrificing a sense of contemporary aesthetics.
