Shopping at Putti is such a treat. In fact there isn’t any place I can think of in Toronto or anywhere else for that matter that even remotely compares. The store has something for everyone. I have bought many gifts at Putti over the years and also purchased many lovely items for our home. There is also a unique selection of baby clothes. probably the nicest I have ever seen that will literally take your breath away. I shop here all year long because there is always something new to find here. And at Christmas time the store is nothing short of magical. I have always found the staff to be helpful and kind and the owner goes out of her way to source out unique items to bring to her customers that you just won’t find anywhere else. As far as the prices you can shop here for high end items, but there are also many articles that are not at all expensive. I went to Putti yesterday and bought many delicate ornaments and the owner wrapped each item in bubble wrap, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Putti to people who like to buy nice things for their home or if you’re looking for a special gift. Also I just noticed at the top of my review it lists ‘antiques’…from what I can tell the majority of the items in the store are not antiques so just didn’t want to mislead anyone with this review.

I have shopped at Putti many times and have never left the store without purchasing something. It’s my go to store for that special gift or specific furnishing. The staff are always friendly and knowledgeable. As long as I have shopped there I have never once had a rude or bad experience.

Putti has some beautiful items, especially at Christmas time with all the lovely ornaments. This being said, the staff there are extremely unpleasant; in particular the owner. The staff are unfriendly, unhelpful and treat you as though you are intruding in their cramped store. Their prices are quite high but it is a beautiful store. We used to love coming to this shop to buy some special ornaments but we won’t return. I asked for boxes for ornaments for gifts; they didn’t have any. When you spend $ 15 dollars on an ornament, you want to make sure it is kept safe until delivered. They offered«gift bags», then they didn’t include any! I asked for some extra tissue, they didn’t include any! I work in customer service where I treat every customer as I would like to be treated. At Putti you are treated so poorly, I will no longer support this establishment.

I feel like Goldilocks as I stumble in to this stunningly opulent boutique, and everything believe me is «Just Right» in here. I want to sit at the table and dine with the beautiful china and flatware, I want to jump into the over-zealously cushioned bed and sit at the vanity and spritz myself silly with prestige French cult label parfums. I just want to move in as it’s just so darn gorgeous in here. I think if Liberace was schooled by Martha Stewart, this is what the interior of his house would have looked like. The service is meh, but I can’t blame them as I’m sure they’re more intent on surveying for theft rather than focused customer service as this place has every available space artfully CRAMMED with $$$ and tasteful tchotzkis. If and when I win the lottery or some trustfund I have yet to know about(cough, cough Uncle J) comes to fruition, I will Putti-pimp my place out, in shabby-chic/glam for shizzle.

Putti is a high-end home furnishings and accessories store in midtown. It’s the kind of store you browse through when want to feel like you belong to the moneyed Rosedale set for half an hour. And it will take you half an hour to get through the store — there is stuff *everywhere*! They have an amazing selection of candles, framed art, and linens, among other things. The prices were slightly out of reach for me(a $ 5,000 armoire, anyone?), although they’re not catering to my demographic anyway. I found the staff to be extremely rude(well, Ruth«helped» me and she was the rudest of the rude) — when you walk in the door, don’t expect them to say hello, or speak to you in any way. If you really want to splurge on something nice for your home or need a nice gift for someone, it’s worth a look… just don’t expect to be fawned over from the staff.
