Gloria is my
mother’s mother.  

A lover of people, her home a revolving door of guests. 

In an era when women raised the children, prepared meals from scratch, and hosted parties, she was quick to respond to a compliment with, “Well thank you! I bought it myself!” 

Hair in a twist, lips a bright peach or bold red, she moved about the room armed with undeniable humor, beauty, and confidence. 

Dear Gloria is a shop of artist-made home goods made in New York City. 

With her legacy in one hand and a love for New York creativity in the other,

Dear Gloria was born. 

To us, 
the providers and planners
the resourceful with style, 
scrappy and hospitable, 
The urban dwellers maximizing small spaces
always with room at the table for one more. 

Cheers to us,
K
