DöKham will sell Tibetan treasures on 1st Avenue

DöKham, which sells clothes and accessories from Tibet ("treasures from Tibet," per the website), is opening an outpost at 117 First Ave. between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place...



DöKham has a store on Prince between Lafayette and Mulberry. Not sure if they are moving or if this will be a second location. (Updated: The Prince Street location, which debuted in 1988, is now closed.) You can find out more about their wares here.

The previous tenant at No. 117, Village Kids Footwear, closed at the end of last summer.

As a P.S. ... and if you don't already know ... Himalayan Vision is a nice Tibetan speciality shop nearby at 127 Second Ave. between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place...
