Calabar Imports is a colorful store filled with one-of-a-kind jewelry, home decor, fashions, accessories, aromatics and gifts. Everything in the shop is handmade by artisans in Africa, Asia and Central and South America. Customers who climb the steps of its built-in loft can get a birds-eye view of the unique merchandise imported from all over the globe.
Editor's Note: Calabar Imports has been closed down since June 4, 2011, when the building burned nearly to the ground.
They hope to re-open the Prospect Heights store soon.
Meanwhile, they have a second location in DUMBO:
