The Pilgrimage West

European gift and furniture boutique Cobblestone & Vine recently celebrated the grand opening of its newest location in the Pleasant Ridge Town Center in Little Rock. “Whereas our Heights store has a cozier French country feel, the new location is modern Parisian with more room for larger pieces of furniture,” co-owner Dinah Sullivan says. Building on Cobblestone & Vine's successful mission to bring fine home furnishings to central Arkansas, the 3,200-square-foot space also better accommodates West Little Rock residents.

The staff takes pride in providing exceptional customer service ranging from full-time design experts to personal shoppers. Original artwork by local artists and solid wood heirloom-quality furniture fill the large space, which also includes design authority Joe Ruggiero's ultra-durable textile collection for Sunbrella. In addition, the lifestyle and home store carries hand-poured soy candles, chandeliers and home accessories, and provides custom-made bedding, draperies and gift registry.
