Since 1968 Appalchian Spring has been discovering America’s première craftspeople and featuring their distinctive contributions to our culture. Each piece in our store reflects the finest in quality, function and design. Enjoy the enduring beauty of American craft.

History

Established in 1968.

Appalachian Spring began in the Georgetown section of Washington, DC in 1968 with the goal of bringing to this community a collection of products

*that were new and uniquely different

*that were of the highest quality available

*that were designed to be both beautiful and useful in everyday life

To find the products to meet our standards we first went to the artists and craftspeople that lived and worked in the Appalachian states of the United States, a region stretching from Maine to Alabama. We had grown up in this region and knew the skills and dedication to quality of these artists. We looked to this region as an expression, at that time, of a rebirth of American creativity… and thus our name: Appalachian Spring.

Today Appalachian Spring carries the work of craftspeople from throughout the United States.

Very nice shop in Reston Town Center. But, unfortunately not very friendly. While we were there three employees only one said anything to us. That one wasn’t what I would call friendly. They have nice things. Prices on par for what they sell. One employee was nice to a young man who bought some small puppets, giving props for that. This kind of shop needs people who smile when customers walk in. There were some beautiful unique jewelry boxes would have bought. Oh well, can spend my money somewhere else.

Appalachian Spring is a groovy little shop in the Reston Town Center. You can enter the shop from the street or an interior hallway from the Hyatt Regency.
They carry a wide variety of home décor items, as well as some nice jewelry. I stopped in an attempt to find some Men’s sterling silver hoop earrings. They had some, but not exactly what I was looking for. Liz, one of the Shopkeepers, was very helpful. She took my name and phone number and did some research to see if she could order for me exactly what I was looking for.
She called me back two days later to follow up. Great service! Just bummed they did not have what I wanted!

Ever tried to give a jewelry box as a gift?
It is surprisingly hard to find in this area. However, Appalachian Spring is the best place to find one. I love exotic hardwoods and this place seems to have an endless supply of handcrafted wood boxes from burl walnut and holly, to spalted maple and ebony. The prices are high, however, the wooden anomalies are impossible for man to breed and extrordinarily difficult to find in nature. The perfect place to find a gift for a wedding or birthday.

Appalachian Spring has an interesting variety of gifts — vases, bowls, cutting boards, jewelry, kids items, picture frames etc, but like Gayle and Lynn said — pricey. It is one of the better places in the area to go looking for unique gifts.
Customer service is not always what I’d expect. For example, I recently bought a gift there, and the cashier wrapped in up and stuffed it into a box that the gift was clearly too big to fit in… she seemed a bit overwhelmed (it took awhile for even that to get wrapped) and so it wasn’t worth protesting so I just reboxed it at home. Still, given what they charge you’d at least expect to get a presentable box for your gift!

Agree with Lynn S. on the sticker shock associated with some of the items here… yikes! I guess it is par for the course since this store is right next to the Hyatt and in Reston Town Center.
However, it is tough to find unique and pretty incredible (you have to see ‘em to believe it) bowls, cutting boards and other fictional kitchen and decorative items.
Everything in the store is handmade in the U.S. of A. There’s beautiful silver jewelry, clay vases and neat-​o kaleidoscopes. This is my go-​to place for wedding (or anniversary gifts) for that couple that has everything. You know the type. The items made out of wood here are lovely, and in every kind of wood you can think of, too.

Handmade glass vases, jewelry, baby gifts, fabric items, rare woods and assorted pottery are all on display. A small shop, but somewhere you will find a unique gift and get as much help as you need. Pricey, but not outrageous, the artists represented here produce high quality items. The shop can be entered either directly from the street or through the Hyatt Hotel in Reston Town Center.
