Now Open!
We’re happy to announce our new home: an 11,000 square foot showroom filled with an eclectic collection of contemporary products for all of the rooms in your home.

It was time to combine our smaller stores—Foster’s Gourmet Cookware (Reading Terminal Market) and Foster’s Urban Homeware (Old City)—under one roof. Our goal is to carry everything for the modern city dweller’s home. This new store is our opportunity to increase product lines, offering a larger variety of great design for the home.

From contemporary furniture, lighting and decorative gifts to gourmet cooking tools, stemware and houseware accessories, our sophisticated yet whimsical homeware collection is a browser’s paradise. Staged within the store are spaces dedicated to table top designs including premium brands like OXO, iittala, Chilewich, Umbra, Riedel, Schott Zwiesel, and TAG. Expect to see a bigger kids department (including babycare), more gifts and books.

We’re excited to feature Apartment 399, a loft-like furniture studio and event space complete with a demonstration kitchen, outfitted with Miele appliances, designed by NYLoft of Philadelphia.

As usual, our experienced staff is on hand to assist in bridal registry, corporate and holiday gift shopping needs.

See you on the corner,
Ken Foster and Larry Lantz
