Alex does a superb job curating goods from makers near and far. The store is an oasis. My go to store for gifts ( and a little something for myself) every time.

Owner is a precious soul who I can tell throws her heart and soul into her business and the artists whom she champions. Gorgeous pieces, nothing mass produced. Find the perfect gift or your next favorite treasure in this adorable boutique in Red Bank. A pleasure to shop in, I dare you to not feel the great energy to be had at Forge. I bought a few gifts for loved ones and some sunstone earrings that are my absolute fave.

Carefully selected items that are both beautiful and functional. This is the place for if you want a special item that you won't see coming and going everywhere. Unique and gorgeous things with a handmade touch.

It's one of the best gift shops I've found! The space is lovely! Alex chose one of a kind bracelets, earrings, necklaces, leather goods, clothing, ceramics, very unique soaps, incense and candles, decorative table and wall items....I always leave with the perfect gift. The shopping experience is relaxing with very light fragrances and music. My husband who is NOT a shopper buys most of his gifts in FORGE and with a lot of success.

As I start this review I feel completely remiss as I have no photos of this absolutely LOVELY store to share (so that means I'll have to go back some time and take some!). During my recent visit to Red Bank, I was wandering around the area off the main drag at Broad Street and this store front caught my eye.It is hard to say what fires one's brain sometimes. I love all types of shops, but when I see a bright, light drenched shop with lots of white and wood, something just fires up my interest. You can see photos of the shop on their site (shopatforge.com) to get a sense of what I mean. The store caught my eye and I had to check it out!Inside is a spacious shop with shelves to the left and right and a large island in the middle with all sorts of curated gifts laid out on tables. There are descriptions on every item, which is great because sometimes you see things at these shops and it's hard to tell just what you're looking at. Other times there are items that you just latch onto. There were all sorts of items ranging from soaps, to shampoos, to kitchen ware to an Astrology journal. The common theme was that everything felt elegant and worthy of adding to your home or being a gift. No surprise, as the owner carefully curates everything herself.I wound up picking up a "bag in a bag", a collapsible bag that can fit inside your coat pocket or a side bag. I also picked up some nice hand soaps from Japan. I was told that during my visit the stock in the store was relatively low after the holidays, so I look forward to going back when the shelves and table are more filled with lovely products.Forge is a beautiful shop with a very cool owner and is worth a visit, check it out!
