Annabel Lee Shanghai – Contemporary traditional designs

Annabel Lee Shanghai is a group of young international artists that mix the traditional, elegant Chinese crafts with modern design. They specialise in embroidery, a skill that has been rediscovered just recently by the younger designer generation.

The group has a smallish store in the Xintiandi plaza that stocks their products, such as scarfs, bags and tablecloths. As the shops sells mostly crafts, the prices are steep, but some items are worth every penny.
