LAST STORE FRONT DAY... SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7th., 2009 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dear patrons and friends,
On Saturday, February 7th, 2009 Coqui's Journeys store front closed its doors.
I want to thank you for your support and good wishes while Coqui's Journeys has been operating in Rochester, NY. Coqui's will continue to exist via its website Internet presence at www.coquisjourneys.com.
Many wonderful people have passed through the store doors, and everyone of them had a special story and culture to share, whether vocalized or just carried in their hearts. Despite the bitter sweet tone of this notice, I hope to convey my gratitude and appreciation in sharing our interest in cultural diversity and uniquely artistic products in western upstate NY.
I wish everyone continued happiness and prosperous journeys!
Coqui's Journeys offers gifts and products that are unique and reminiscent of traveling worldwide or shopping in the world's "El Mercado" (The Marketplace).
Our focus is on product offerings that include ceramics and crafts from South America and various other Latin American countries. The product selection is not limited only to this global region or just ceramics. At Coqui's you will find personal use gifts, home decor goods, tastes that are enticing, and art that brings together the corners of the earth. These are places you might normally wish to travel to, or have done so in the past. Among the fine gift selection you will find, wall hangings, jewelry, hand-carved wooden figures, alpaca products including rugs and sweaters, wool bags, water color paintings, stone figurines and many more brightly colored and uniquely chosen handcrafts.
The gifts will hopefully inspire you to keep on traveling or provide a nostalgic memory of that once unforgettable trip. Who knows, some of these memories and good feelings might even be evoked by a local artist's creation!
