Adams Morgan Tibet Shop to Open Location on Georgia Avenue
*UPDATE 11/21/2012: According to the shop owners, the business now has a sign and will be open for business on Saturday, Nov. 24.*
As a reader stated in August, the former Van & Frank Barber Shop at 3213 Georgia Avenue will become the second location of the Tibet Shop. Shop number one is located at 2407 18th Street, NW, in Adams Morgan.
According to their Web site, Tibet Shop specializes in “high-end Himalayan arts, crafts, jewelry, clothing, carpet, ritual items and other hand made products.” I wasn’t able to get in touch with the owner yet to see when they plan to open, but judging from what I was able to see through the windows, it must be soon. The store is already stocked full of Tibetan items. The only thing the shop appeared to lack was signage.
I think its great that we’ll soon have a new shop in the neighborhood that broadens the goods and services currently available on Georgia Avenue.

Weird. I wonder if they think there’s really demand for more of this stuff? I guess we shall see.

Very much approve. I’ll do my bit to keep these cats in business.
