About

For coastal art, reclaimed-wood furniture, and fair-trade home goods along Coast Highway 101, Bliss 101 occupies a storefront inside Pacific Station in Encinitas's Old Encinitas district at 553 South Coast Highway 101. The gallery and interior-design studio sources furniture crafted from retired Brazilian telephone poles and repurposed Indonesian fishing vessels, a reclaimed-material philosophy that aligns with the antique-sourcing approach at Bellini's Antique Italia on the same corridor. Rotating exhibitions feature paintings, photography, and mixed-media work from both established and emerging San Diego County artists, with commission and custom-art services available for residential and commercial installations. The handmade jewelry selection spotlights Encinitas-based artisans using locally sourced stones and metalwork, complementing the goldsmith and gemstone offerings at Rei of Light Jewelry in the Encinitas design community. Signature pieces include coconut-wood dining sets from Balinese cooperatives, reclaimed-teak king bed frames with mortise-and-tenon joinery, and hand-poured soy candles in small-batch ceramic vessels produced under fair-trade labor certifications.
