My last visit was to buy a holder for my calligraphy nibs. I didn't for a moment think The Deckled Edge would not stock them. Nor did this great store let me down. From paper, canvas, inks and paints to a range of art and craft tools and a great deal more, this is the store for the professional, amateur and wannabe. One of the great shopping meccas in the Cape. And I'm delighted that they have moved down the mountain nearer the main road in Salt River. I can stroll over from Observatory to ogle the goods and experience an overwhelming desire to blow my savings on the wonderful offerings.

Interesting art supply shop but did not carry the watercolour paper my wife was looking for, did carry a fine range of watercolour paints though, also we thought the pricing would be keener than PE but sadly not, tricky area to get to if not a local

My first experience with The Deckle Edge has been extremely positive. Whilst price is important ( and their prices on the items I ordered were very competitive ); product knowledge and customer service are critical. The staff with whom I have engaged have understood my needs and have taken the trouble to provide what I needed, even to the extent of ordering a small inexpensive item to complete my order.
