点评:On the third day of holiday shopping in Portsmouth after the Black Friday/Small Business Saturday events, I got a parking space in the Worth Lot off Maplewood Avenue adjacent to the Vaughan Mall. It was close to where I planned to shop. After visiting a few stores along the way, I got to Nahcotta. It was a revisit to this store for me.
Nahcotta classifies itself as an art gallery and home goods boutique, but it’s really a lot more. It’s a stationery store, a gift store, a jewelry store, a greeting card shop, an apothecary, etc.
One will find many types of art supplies. Then, there all the stationery and notebooks, note pads, sticky notes, planners, journals, diaries, calendars, stickers, and more.
The shop also carries handbags, clutches, shoulder bags, sling bags, messenger bags, and wallets in many different styles and materials.
For jewelry, there were earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, and enamel pins. The store carries some fine jewelry with semiprecious stones and diamonds. One delicate ring I saw was a heart-shaped diamond at $368.00 that would make a perfect pre-engagement ring or promise ring. One ring had small citrine cut in a diamond shape and was bezel set. That was $350.00. One unusual bracelet was made of peridots. It was $120.00. Earrings included hoop, drop, dangle, and stud styles in plan metal or set with beads or stones. Most of the necklaces I saw had pendants.
Numerous accessories included Merino wool socks, cotton blend socks, winter scarves, barrettes and hair clips,
There were a number of books from cookbooks and coffee table books to children’s books and guides.
The store had a couple dozen different candles. Some were tea lights; some were tapers; others were in jars and tumblers. I saw several environment-friendly soy candles. One of interest was the No. 11 Balsam + Clove Soy Candle by Dilo from Philadelphia at $32.00. It was made with 100% soy wax. It was expected to burn for 65 - 70 hours. It was a seasonal candle.
There were also some bath and body items that included body wash, sea water soaps, a mineral bath soak, bath bombs, hand lotions, lip balm, and a few nail polishes.
For the kitchen, the store had just about anything one would want or need from cookware, single-purpose knives, and utensils to table top.
And, of course, there was a wide selection of wall art. There was one piece that I found fascinating. It had wood-textured roundish discs hanging from a stick and overlapping each other. They were in shades of browns, golds, and reddish browns. They reminded me of samples of leather that one of my uncles had in his leather shop.
With all those types of goods within its walls, it was no wonder that the store was filled with a couple dozen shoppers when I arrived.
Out of everything I saw, the items I liked best were the No. 11 Balsam + Clove Soy Candle by Dilo and the sea water soaps from Atlantic Soap Company of Falmouth, ME. I added both on my Holiday Gift Wish List.
For the variety and quality of the merchandise it carries, I rate Nahcotta at 5.0 and highly recommend a visit.

翻译:黑色星期五/小型企业星期六活动结束后在朴茨茅斯度假购物的第三天,我在靠近沃恩购物中心的枫林大道附近的沃斯停车场找到了一个停车位。离我计划去购物的地方很近。沿途逛了几家商店后,就到了Nahcotta。这对我来说是一次重访这家商店。
Nahcotta 将自己定位为艺术画廊和家居用品精品店,但其实它的内涵远不止于此。这是一家文具店、一家礼品店、一家珠宝店、一家贺卡店、一家药店等等。
人们会发现许多类型的美术用品。然后,还有所有的文具和笔记本、记事本、便利贴、计划本、日记、日记、日历、贴纸等等。
该店还出售多种不同款式和材质的手提包、手拿包、单肩包、单肩包、斜挎包和钱包。
珠宝有耳环、项链、手镯、戒指和珐琅别针。这家商店出售一些带有半宝石和钻石的高级珠宝。我看到的一枚精致的心形钻石戒指售价 368.00 美元,可以作为完美的订婚戒指或定情戒指。其中一枚戒指采用小黄水晶切割成钻石形状,并采用包边镶嵌。那是 350.00 美元。一款不寻常的手镯是由橄榄石制成的。价格是 120.00 美元。耳环包括环形、吊坠、吊坠和耳钉款式,采用平面金属或镶有珠子或宝石。我看到的大多数项链都有吊坠。
众多配饰包括美利奴羊毛袜子、棉混纺袜子、冬季围巾、发夹和发夹,
有很多书籍,从烹饪书、咖啡桌书到儿童读物和指南。
商店里有几十种不同的蜡烛。有些是茶灯;有些是茶灯。有些是锥形的;其他的则装在罐子和玻璃杯中。我看到了几款环保大豆蜡烛。其中一款令人感兴趣的是来自费城的 Dilo 的 11 号香脂 + 丁香大豆蜡烛,售价 32 美元。它是用 100% 大豆蜡制成的。预计燃烧时间为 65 - 70 小时。这是一支季节性蜡烛。
还有一些沐浴和身体用品,包括沐浴露、海水肥皂、矿泉浴液、沐浴炸弹、护手霜、润唇膏和一些指甲油。
对于厨房,商店里几乎有人们想要或需要的任何东西,从炊具、一次性刀具、餐具到桌面。
当然,还有各种各样的墙壁艺术可供选择。有一件作品让我很着迷。它有木质纹理的圆形圆盘挂在一根棍子上,并且彼此重叠。它们的颜色有棕色、金色和红棕色。它们让我想起了我的一位叔叔在他的皮革店里的皮革样品。
店内摆满了所有这些类型的商品,难怪当我到达时,店里挤满了几十名购物者。
在我看到的所有产品中,我最喜欢的是 Dilo 的 No. 11 Balsam + Clove 大豆蜡烛和缅因州法尔茅斯大西洋肥皂公司的海水肥皂。我将两者都添加到了我的节日礼物愿望清单中。
对于 Nahcotta 的商品种类和质量,我给它打分 5.0,强烈推荐您来参观。
