Elizabeth Richard has opened at their new location in the Barclay Square at 20 Sherman Hill Road. The gift store was formerly located on Chase Parkway in Waterbury, where it developed a strong following. Due to unforeseen business complications, owner Lori Greene had to close the Waterbury location in late spring.

Ms. Greene did not rush to select a new location for the business and finally chose the space in Woodbury. The owner and her husband Arthur have spent their summer renovating the new location with the help of their family. Beautiful hardwood floors were installed and distressed doors were hung in a montage on one of the walls. Rustic furniture was brought in to display the merchandise.

The doors to the new shop were opened to the public for the first time at 9:00am Saturday morning and some were waiting outside for the grand opening. The couple invited area residents to come experience a carefully curated selection of gifts and accessories for living exceptionally.

Some items to be found in Elizabeth Richard include Susan Roberts jewelry, gifts for babies, kids and teen, bath and body products and greeting cards. There are Willow Tree collectibles,crystal, and flatware from Wedgwood, Royal Doulton, Lenox, Belleek, Villeroy & Boch and Reed & Barton. Also on display is a large selection of tools for the kitchen like Le Creuset products. I also spotted cookie mixes, Marshes, Fields & Hills pillows, Thymes candles and always wonderful and locally produced Fascia’s Chocolates.

The grand opening festivities featured live music provided by Gillian Greene and CJ Janis.

Elizabeth Richards will be open Monday through Friday 9am to 6pm, Saturdays 9am to 4pm and Sundays 11am to 3pm.
