John Derian and John Derian Dry Goods

It's a rare accomplishment when a store manages to give birth to an entire design sensibility, but John Derian did exactly that. It's equal parts global bazaar, Cape Cod flea market, and literary salon, and it's reflected in everything from his decoupage platters to the silk quilts, feather dusters, and brass candelabra that line the shelves. 6 E.
