After more than four decades on Sacramento Street, luxury home goods retailer Sue Fisher King has moved her store to 1913 Fillmore Street.
Rather than retire, she is looking forward to a new chapter.
“Fillmore is a wonderful street with interesting stores,” King says. “It has a lot of activity and was the only viable location for us.” She adds with a smile: “And our staff is looking forward to all the new dining options.”
King looked at several locations on the street before selecting the corner of Fillmore and Wilmot. She is especially fond of the Victorian architecture on the block and its mix of interesting shops.
Embarking on the move as she prepares to celebrate her 45th year in business, she says: “The important thing is not to think about it. I’m just not someone who can be bored, and I still want to contribute. I need something concrete to do every day — and besides, everyone here is so nice to me.” .
Shelves displays her bestselling handmade ceramics from Astier de Villatte – milky white ceramics is a brand she discovered in Paris in 1996 and launched into the U.S. market. Since then, the brand has expanded across the globe.
Sue Fisher King staples include handcrafted and traditional items, including handpainted porcelain from Richard Ginori and Marie Daage, Fortuny lighting, Porthault linens and glassware from Murano, Italy.
