Bliss is one of my favs on Newbury Street! The owner/buyer does a fabulous job in their product selection of modern wares. They have a great Alessi and Mandarina Duck selection. Iittala, Juliska, French limoge china, and more are all artful displayed throughout the store. The hardest part is deciding what I want! Though their products skew a bit towards the higher end, there's some for every modern enthusist. Staff is quite helpful and knowledgable, never pushy. I love supporting this local independent, in the sea of "mall-a-fied" Newbury Street. I highly recommend Bliss.

Pros: Modern selection, customer service

Cons: none

While christmas shopping on Newbury Street, I wandered in to Bliss for the first time. What a great store! I got so many fun and hard-to-find gifts. The service was superb and the staff was kind enough to take the time to wrap the gifts for me in beautiful striped paper. I'll definitely be back, but next time to buy for myself!

Pros: Service, Selection, Brands

Cons: None

My wife and I registered at Bliss for our wedding because we LOVE their merchandise and we were treated exceptionally well by their staff. That said, their website availability ranges between intermittent and completely down. If your wedding guests are local this isn't so much of an issue, but if the majority of your guests are coming from out of town and can't just swing by Newbury, this is a major problem. Most of the things we registered for at this store were never purchased because their website was never available long enough for anyone to make a purchase.

Pros: great merchandise, wonderful staff

Cons: useless website

Just caught Bliss' Alessi exhibit. Fabulous! But that's coming from an Alessi freak... This store really dedicates itself to great design for the home. The staff is quite friendly and knowledgable too!

Pros: Dedication to Design, Helpful Staff

Cons: None

I absolutely love this store! It's one of my favorite shopping haunts in Boston. All the objects are displayed so beautifully and the window display often engages me on my daily trek to work.

Pros: Great Product Mix, Knowledgable Staff, Artful Merchandising

I had the good fortune to discover this wonderful store earlier this year and have been back several times since. Each time, I discover something new that I hadn't seen previously. The store offers so many beautiful things, making it difficult to take it all in one visit. The employees were great in assisting me with my purchases too. It's nice to such an exquisite independent boutique on a street that is losing some of it's charm to chain stores. Kudos to you on the winning Best Home Furnishings Store! It's well deserved.

Pros: Service, Variety of Goods, Store Design

Cons: Parking

As a regular customer, I am always amazed at how successful they are at finding the most stylish and design conscious items. The selection is outstanding-there is something for every price range. The service is always friendly and helpful. I'm glad they moved to Newbury Street where they belong.

Pros: wide selection, famous designers

Cons: parking
