What's to Buy at New Mercer Island Store Terra Bella?

New home decor and gift shop owner Nancy Meade of Terra Bella describes a line of decorative Busatti linens from Tuscany, Italy. Woven from hand looms, the linen textiles have been made by the same family since 1842 and is a point of pride for Meade.

She's got decorative tea towels starting at $6 each, but an imported Bussati hand towel starts at $29.

Terra Bella opened on July 13 at the former location of Pacific Northwest Ticket Service, at 2864 77th Ave SE.

Meade, an Island resident, said she relocated from the old Main Street of Bellevue after the building she was leasing was scheduled for redevelopment.

Terra Bella is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday - Saturday and 11 to 4 on Sundays. For more information, contact Terra Bella at 425-818-2285.
