Spotted SF / Inner Richmond / Modern Relics
I just discovered this sweet little gem in the city and it was seriously love at first sight. I felt as if I had stepped into a whimsy little wonderland. Every decorative item and every piece of jewelry is absolutely exquisite and delightful. Owner and jewelry designer, Alix Bluh, makes all her pieces in the studio space above the shop, drawing inspiration from nature as well as timeless and treasured objects. She custom makes pieces that are sacred and sentimental to individuals. There is a great video on her site about the the reliquary pieces she designs. In fact, I’m already thinking of a personal item I would love for her to make one day.
You’ll find Alix and her gorgeous shop tucked along a quiet street in the Inner Richmond. Be sure to check her little chalkboard sign with her hours.

Hi Leslie,
I love Modern Relic! You have a great eye. It’s such a treat and the average person walking by has no idea what’s about to hit them. I guess that’s the beauty of SF neighborhoods
Hi Amy! Thanks for your note. I totally agree with you. I feel like there’s always so much more I have yet to discover. Modern Relic was truly a beautiful surprise! – Leslie
