Calico Brook - By Appointment.....


We spent last Friday meeting with one of our customers after our normal trading hours which was fun for him as well as us and we would just like to remind all of you that we offer this service as a matter of course by simply making an appointment with us so that you can shop and or discuss your requirements in more depth and at your convenience.


We realise that some of you work different hours and may also have travel time from work to the Ferry so if you would like to avail yourself of any of our services - just a reminder they include some of the following :-
  • Homeware and giftware
  • Wedding lists 
  • Gift lists
  • Sourcing individual products for you
  • Offering a consultation and design service
  • Corporate and personal hire services tailored to your needs
Over and above this we are more than happy to discuss any requirement or request you may have concerning your own personal wishes and wants. If, for example, you see something in the shop or online and you would like to reserve it until you are able to look at it in more detail then simply contact us and we will make all the arrangements with you without any fuss or bother.

    We want you to enjoy all aspects of making choices and purchases here at Calico Brook so please feel free to call on us whenever and however it suits you.

    Love from all at Calico Brook

    New Calico Brook Gallery

    Just when you thought that the Tate Modern and the proposed V & A Dundee had all the attention, along comes Calico Brook and whisks into the lead by announcing the soon to be completed opening of our little mini gallery, all within our boutique store in Broughty Ferry. Unlike other galleries ours will be by personal invitation only and this will allow you to both view individual pieces that will adorn the walls as well as the objects that we have placed around the space for you to admire. Of course there will be items for you to purchase and take away but also you will be able to look at our extensive range of fine goods all within the catalogues and directories that we have available for your perusal.

    We have not as yet set the exact date for our official launch but it will be very very soon.

    It will be very exciting because I am sure many of you will have noticed that we have slowly and steadily expanded the product range that we offer to all of you, our loyal customers and with the addition of our mini gallery space we will not only be able to exhibit more stunning items than we do at present but we will be combining this great space with our wedding gift list reception area.
    This will allow us here at Calico Brook to be able to look after your wedding needs both for the happy couple in helping you choose from our extensive range of very unusual gifts to managing your gift list and helping all of your guests with each treasured wish that you would like purchased.

    If you are looking for inspiration and need bespoke pieces for your home or wish to set up any type of gift list with us in the near future, we will be more than delighted to make an appointment with you to help you with all of your requirements.

    Keep looking out for further announcements from us very soon.
