Amy Hevron Art Update

Budding Seattle artist Amy Hevron has four new original paintings showing at Urchin. By using wood panels and layers of acrylic paint, Amy achieves an organic look-and-feel in each of her unique, one-of-a-kind paintings. Starting at just $225, this is gorgeous art your back pocket can afford.

New Arrivals: Scarves + Wraps

Last weekend was gorgeous and hot, but let's face it: the rain's coming back as this week cools down. Don't be bummed out! You can still look chic, while staying warm, in a lightweight cashmere wrap from Yarnz.
