Canvas.
Clay.
Color.
Original paintings, prints, mixed-media works, and sculptural pieces from Hickory's most compelling artists. Every brushstroke tells a story. Every piece carries the energy of the hands that made it — raw, honest, and impossible to replicate. Whether you're starting a collection or adding to one, this is where you find work that stops people mid-sentence.
Wearable Art.
Handcrafted necklaces, hammered rings, artisan earrings, and one-of-a-kind bracelets — each piece made by a real silversmith or metalsmith. These aren't mass-produced trinkets. They're miniature sculptures you carry with you. Raw stones, hammered metals, unexpected textures, and designs that honor the materials themselves.
Stories You Can Wear.
Carefully sourced vintage garments with history and character. From perfectly worn-in denim to silk blouses from another era, every piece has lived a life before landing on our racks. We look for quality, condition, and that intangible something that makes a garment feel inevitable — the piece you didn't know you needed until you touched the fabric.
Make Your Space Singular.
Hand-thrown vases. Woven wall hangings. Sculptural objects. Candles that smell like the Blue Ridge. Your home should feel like you — not a catalog. Our décor collection brings warmth, texture, and soul to every room. Curated from artisans across North Carolina, these pieces prove that functional objects can also be art.
From the Earth, Through Their Hands.
Hand-thrown bowls, sculptural vessels, and functional ceramics crafted by potters who've spent years learning the language of clay. Each piece bears the marks of its making — the slight asymmetry, the unique glaze pattern, the thumbprint on the bottom. These are objects meant to be used daily and treasured forever.
Music the Way It Was Meant to Be Heard.
A carefully curated selection of new and vintage vinyl from our upstairs collection. Jazz, soul, indie rock, forgotten gems, and essential classics — every record is handpicked by James & Rita Park, who've been collecting for over forty years. Because streaming is convenient, but vinyl is an experience. The weight of the record, the crackle before the first note, the liner notes in your hands.
Made by Hand.
Meant to Be Treasured.
Textiles, leather goods, wooden objects, candles, soaps, and artisan crafts that carry the unmistakable warmth of human touch. Every item in this collection was made in small batches — often by a single person in a single studio. No factories. No shortcuts. Just skill, patience, and the quiet pride of making something beautiful from scratch.
Give Something That Means Something.
For birthdays, anniversaries, housewarmings, or just because — our gift collection brings together the best of Bottega in one place. Handcrafted treasures, rare finds, and pieces destined to become heirlooms. Whether your budget is $20 or $200, you'll find something here that says what generic simply can't: I thought of you.
