I'm a little on the heavier side and the man working the front counter was very friendly and helpful with sizing carrying sizes from xs-2xl. The clothing fit beautifully and looks amazing on very fun and colorful.

This is one of those hidden little gems that typically,only the locals know about. While I haven't been to Tibet yet, this shop is my beginning. Textiles are my weakness and their clothes, blankets, and pillows are always fun to look through. Lots more, go see for yourself!

Love this store, the first time I went there was last year after the lockdown, we just want to refresh ourselves, got bored at home. Glad we did it because we found this store, and we love the ethnic scarf. The owner, Tenpa is very nice person, we end up bought more kantha scarves, most of my friends love it too. From last year to this date, we already bought more than kantha scarves from Tibet Handicrafts, love the unique motif and very colorful. So grateful we found this store.

Tibet Handicrafts is, as the name implies, a place to pick up Tibet orientated gift items. If you have ever been to one of these shops you pretty much know what to expect. They have a wide variety of jewelry, clothing, wallhangings, and books. The selection at the shop is pretty good and the prices are reasonable. Overall, there's really not too much else to describe this shop. If you're looking for a unique gift item, this may well be the place for you to shop.

Walked in here as I am a regular patron of lumberyard. The guy at the front desk immediately follows me around as if he assumed I was going to steal. If that wasn't enough he pretty much couldn't answer any question we had about one of the pieces we were intending to buy. I wish they treated their customers better.

So lovely!! I went with a friend and we were both in awe. I was drawn to an amazing prayer wheel there and 2 gentlemen taught me a bit about it and the correct ay to use it. They even showed me online many different types of prayer wheels that are in Tibet. Very amazing. Very sweet! ~OM MANI PADME HUM~
