Nestled in the heart of Kuzguncuk, YirmiYedi is a unique sanctuary where art, design, and community come together in a harmonious blend of creativity and charm. The physical store is housed in a meticulously restored historical building dating back to 1860. The festive adornments outside add to the welcoming atmosphere.
I particularly love the earrings and notebooks, but each piece is specially curated and has its own charm. YirmiYedi Kuzguncuk's commitment to supporting designers is admirable, allowing each creator to showcase their work under their brand name. The prices, though not cheap, cater to diverse budgets, offering a range of products that are as accessible as they are exquisite.
In a world of fast consumption, YirmiYedi Kuzguncuk is a breath of fresh air, inviting patrons to savor the beauty of handcrafted, timeless pieces. When you find yourself lost in the nostalgic streets of Kuzguncuk, I suggest you drop by YirmiYedi Kuzguncuk even if you are not going to buy anything.
