Honfleur™ features a contemporary collection that feels good to
the touch, pleases the eye and ear, and showcases the very best in accessibly
priced and highly polished design. The store carries quality items of
merit by emerging and established designers. We are as source for goods
and handicrafts not carried by major retailers, including clothing and
loungewear for all ages, textiles, linens, housewares, original artwork,
and award-winning children's toys and books. Honfleur™ is the
reinvented version of the store that used to be right around the corner.
The one where you'd go just to poke around and where the smell of a
good cup of joe hung in the air. The place where the proprietors cared
about earning your business (even though its since become a Starbucks)
and the one where everybody knew your name (okay, wait -- no, that's
not us, that's the bar, and it's still there).
Our stores are a safe-haven for those in search of that special something,
that something that feels good to the touch and stands on its own merits.
We invite you to consider us when you've concluded that while choice
is a good thing, it's simply headache inducing to navigate online sites
that have endless categories of "stuff" alongside affiliates who also
offer "stuff" (used? new? what is that exactly?). When you can't make
it to specialty stores before five and when wandering chain stores isn't
productive or fun. And especially when you need a gift for a good friend
and day-of-the-week underwear won't do.
Whether for yourself or someone else, we deliver the hard-to-find without
compromising on presentation, convenience, or style. Our gift orders
are beautifully presented and shipped, and we pledge never to toss a
lovely item that is still in its shrink-wrap into a box and declare
it memorable. We ship worldwide have accurate
sizing charts for the clothing and linens we carry, and can tell you
anything you may wish to know about the item that you are contemplating.
And then there's peace of mind: our items are shipped from our own distribution
facility, which means that we have seen and inspected every product
that we sell. If you don't yet know us or are curious to find out more
about who we are and what you can expect, we invite you to visit our
Outlet. The Outlet
features selected items from our store, and it was established as a
means to stay connected with our loyal customers as well as provide
a friendly venue in which to welcome new ones.
. . . A Word About Our Name
For those of you curious about the genesis of our store's name,
we'd like you to know that Honfleur Home holds three distinct meanings
for us. First, it is a positively beautiful haven in Normandy, France
- an oasis pure and simple that is located on the Seine and home to
many painters, writers, and musicians. Second, for those of us still
in awe of, inspired by and mindful of the courage and sacrifice of one
of the longest days in our country's history, the landings at Normandy,
the name Honfleur will conjure a particular type of meaning. Finally,
our founders simply loved the sound of the word in and of itself. Though
our name may be imported from France, our store is proudly a reflection
of all that is possible in this country.

Ordering online is simple and secure. You will be free from
