GrayMist Review

I walked into Graymist after picking up a few groceries with my roommate because we were both new to the neighborhood and curious about the shop. It was evident from the moment we walked inside that the shopkeepers had a genuine hospitality and desire to share their craft with deep love.

Whenever I walk around Graymist today I try to stop by to check out the range of intentionally displayed products, indulge in the cozy-atmosphere, and walk home with a few new treasures to decorate my own home. I look forward to returning when the shop opens again!

Really great selection, well-curated, staff is very helpful!

Graymist is a gift for our neighborhood. It is my go-to gift shop. Jewelry, bags, candles - you name it! I miss unique stores like this as everything has become so mainstream - and the customer service is just wonderful.

Love the shop, so well-curated. Took a basket making class and ended up making some very lovely bracelets, very enjoyed and nice, self-paced instruction!

Loved this shop as soon as I walked in! It has really great quality products and the space is esthetically pleasing. I love visiting every time I am in the area. Absolutely love it and pretty sure you would find something you like amongst their unique offerings.

Sadly I have never been to your store, BUT I met several of you when you came to the Nantucket Lightship Basket Museum and demonstrated wonderful ways to wrap gifts - especially gifts with unusual shapes.
I m still doing it YOUR WAY!! Thank you!

I love Graymist. They have so many beautiful and unique gift and household items, and the service is exceptional.

Beautiful designed store with unique things for that person who has everything. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff willing to go that extra mile to help. Highly recommended destination for holiday shopping!

For almost 4 years, I lived a few blocks from GrayMist. It broke my heart to leave Cambridge but my job eventually required it. During my stay in Cambridge, I walked by GrayMist frequently and stopped in regularly to admire and purchase their unique mix of handsomely styled new or beautifully conserved antique gifts. Many of these one of a kind items reflect the ocean-oriented motifs so fitting of their Nantucket theme. Eventually I started taking basket making classes and was able to make 4 of my very own Nantucket baskets. I even continued to work with their master basket maker when I returned to New Jersey. I miss GrayMist but I am pleased that they continue to thrive and share the ancient art of Nantucket baskets with the local Cambridge community. I also appreciate and applaud their work as global citizens by keeping a link to partners in Japan who share the same love of design and Nantucket baskets as we do.

Once upon a time I thought I might want to be a basketmaker. Turns out not, but the Nantucket basket classes I took at Graymist were really rewarding. If you're not a basket person, and you just like beautiful objects and beautiful service, Graymist is one of the loveliest places in New England.
