Muntedkowhai at Conifer


Amy Mautz, a former Built by Wendy employee has opened up her own art and clothing boutique Conifer in Cow Hollow area of San Francisco. Reclaimed wooden floors and redwood shelves from Petaluma’s Heritage Salvage set the stage for racks of industrial black piping hung with women’s apparel by designers such as Rachel Comey, Organic by John Patrick, Lover, Lauren Moffat and Built By Wendy. Bags by Lauren Merkin and sunglasses by Karen Walker accompany jewelry by Dirty Librarian Chains, Wendy Nichol, Aesa and Munted Kowhai. Hansel by Basel socks, Blithe and Bonny soaps and candles, Austin Press cards and what Mautz dubs other “gifty items” adorn a central table Mautz designed herself using salvaged wood and metal.

So, if you're in the San Francisco area, go visit Conifer and perhaps help the economy a bit?
