Curated Gift Store With International Design Experience Opens On Metuchen's Main Street

METUCHEN, NJ - A boutique gift store with international design roots has opened its doors in Metuchen. Fawcett & Kind Living, located at 416 Main Street, celebrated its soft opening last week, bringing curated home goods and gifts to the local community.

The family-run business began as a small design company in the United Kingdom before expanding to serve high-profile clients, including knighted soccer players, BAFTA and OBE award-winning actors, premiership managers, and private families worldwide.

Named in honor of proprietors' parents Michael Fawcett and Janet Kind, the store reflects the owners' commitment to meaningful business practices. "We strongly believe in the power of a business model where people and positive impact are at the heart of its working," the owners shared on social media.

The shop aims to offer carefully selected items that enhance customers' homes with both function and joy. "We can't wait to share special pieces with you & your family that bring laughter, joy and design into your homes," the owners stated.

The store is currently celebrating small businesses with 20 percent off the entire store until July 11.

The store's opening adds another unique retail option to Metuchen's Main Street corridor.
