The Scent of the Season

Lobster Season

A favorite time of year in Bermuda, lobster season runs from September through march. It also happens to coincide with the Autumn and the change of seasonal colors which makes this design a fantastic option for your next Fall tablescape.

Meet the Artist

Barbara Finsness lives and works on the magical island of Bermuda, where she draws inspiration from the bright colors, island cottages, flowers and sea life of this pristine, semi-tropical paradise. Barbara creates her original designs in her home studio, preferring to create them by hand at her drawing board.

From our customers
It is one of the rare gift shops on the island where the vision of the artist is so perfectly translated into objects, making the gifts almost pieces of arts. From the beginning, The Island Shop shop has been recognized as a great place for gifts, recieving numerous 'Best of Bermuda' awards.
From our customers
Ever since this shop opened it has been a favorite of mine. I have not been disappointed either in the products they sell or the professionalism and friendliness of their staff. The variety is great and you will just enjoy browsing even if you don't purchase though I suspect you will find something that you must have!
From our customers
The Island Shop enabled me to bring a bit Bermuda back home. Lovely handmade gifts feature Bermuda's unique cottages. My wife was delighted with the hand-stitched pillow and tea cup. A friendly staff is the cherry on this sundae.
