1 Review for “Moses Gift Shop (City Link Mall) ” - Shopping
206
Spotted MOSES while walking via the OLD WAY (citylink mall) towards Suntec from Raffles City. I must say its not visually attractive perhaps because of its uninteresting deco and clear glass shelves, as well as themeless retail items. However what really caught my eye was the SAMSUI women dolls which I must say speaks alot about my hakka heritage. The shop sells lots of stuffs, mainly lifestyle products and some accessories, the items are pretty jumbled up, which is also nice because only at such shops, you can find something truly special and unique.
The dolls comes in different sizes and some big enough to be an art piece on display and some so tiny it can fit into your keychain. I stepped in because I wanted to see more and the friendly staff smiled while she slowly introduced the various items and how they were being made, the significance and its story.
I begin to appreciate each individually handmade items with a sense of bewilderment. I can never imagine individuals with psychiatric disabilities could have such concentration to construct the fine details of the various pieces here. Somehow I guess this is a fabulous project as it not only provides a purpose for them to exercise and learn a skill, it also provides revenue and helps the society to accept them like a regular individual. Though the items on display were not many and some accessories are pretty pricey, yet its for a good course. So if you happen to drop by, be sure to come in and you never know... You might find something interesting and truly unique.
Location: 4/5, Service: 4/5, Merchandises: 4/5 (low in selections and confusing theme yet its for a really good cause), Price: 3/5 (Some stuffs are really expensive), Price worthiness: 5/5 ( You know that you are helping to make the world a better place)
