the art of the collection
Collecting isn't about having more, it's about choosing well and making space for beauty. Wander through the collections we've spent more than a decade refining. Your next obsession is waiting for you.
For the woman who taught you to love beautiful things, our shop girls have selected only the most lovely gifts. It's not about the gift, but if it was, it would be about one of these.

Lauren Nelson | Mother's Day Gift Edit
We asked our friend Lauren Nelson of Lauren Nelson Design to share her thoughts on motherhood and her favorite picks for Mother’s Day. Lauren is a celebrated interior designer known for creating spaces that feel collected, personal, and effortlessly beautiful. She’s also a mother of two, and brings the same thoughtfulness she’s known for in her work to her life at home. We’re so happy to share a little peek into her Mother’s Day plans.
Bess Piergrossi | Mother's Day Gift Edit
Bess Piergrossi is a mother, florist, gardener, and the thoughtful heart behind Hitch Foot Farm. Her world is filled with beauty—delicate flowers grown from seed, home-cooked meals, and time spent with her family on their small, vibrant farm in the Hudson Valley. We asked Bess to share a few things she’s wishing for this Mother’s Day, along with a glimpse into her own quiet traditions.

ABOUT US
We believe that not making something new is the greenest thing of all, that a small business can make a difference, that the human touch is a powerful thing, and that working side by side with family and colleagues who have become friends is a really nice way to spend your day.
MEET THE TEAM
What makes Elsie Green special is our people. We've got a few former corporate executives, a few interior designers, a woodworker, a recent college graduate. But we're all collectors, enthusiastic travelers, design lovers and voracious readers. And we're all shopkeepers at heart.
OUR DONATIONS
Since we started Elsie Green we've always given time or money to causes that tug at our heartstrings. We believe in sharing our abundance (however small in some years) & we believe generosity will pay us back in ways that can't be measured with the usual outward signs of success.
