Need a little Buddha in your life for the Holidays.

Venture to Alvear Studio Design & Imports in the Eastern Market area to check out their newest international arrivals. Alvear’s pieces include furniture, textiles, crafts, arts, home accessories, jewelry, and bags from more than 42 countries. Proprietors Francisco Pliego and Chris Alvear opened the place seven years ago after a successful three year stint as vendors in Eastern Market. They travel to locales across the world to find unique and striking pieces. Alvear offers custom interior design services and they have outfitted a number of homes and restaurants across the DC area including Oyamel, Rustico Restaurant, and the recently opened Sova Wine and Espresso Bar. On the second Saturday of every month at 7 pm, Alvear joins with other storefronts in the Eastern Market area for a free gallery walk. Alvear features an artist each month during this event in an effort to increase their visibility in the DC market and present DC residents with distinctive artistic creations.
