Southern Breeze 2007 Summer Issue - (Page 59) Shopping Spree Named after Bryan Batt’s grandmother, Hazel Nuss, Hazelnut owns a vibrant blend of many personalities. Bryan along with co-owner and partner, Tom Cianfichi, has joined a gallery of gifted artisans in a spectacular show of traditional, contemporary, and edgy designs. “It’s not so exclusive or high end; we have something in every price range,” Bryan says. “The one thing I don’t think New Orleans has is our kind of gift shop and home accents.” “I love to shop for the store,” says Tom, once a buyer and manager of a Madison Avenue gift shop in Manhattan. “I enjoy maintaining a certain point of view while always searching for something different, and then merchandising (display) to make it look the best it can.” While browsing Hazelnut, you’ll find Jonathan Adler designs that reveal split personalities, king/queen, happy/sad in his Utopia Collection of pottery and tableware with a mid-century feel. Laurel Wilder uses a reverse decoupage in glassware and serving trays with a poetic look at nature featuring dragonflies, ferns, etc. Earthtones hold company with pastels as Tom captures the essence of the smart Madison Avenue appeal with a New Orleans flair. An exclusive to Hazelnut and featured in national home decorating magazines, the New Orleans Toile collection features icons such as the St. Charles Streetcar, the St. Louis Cathedral, and the Steamboat Natchez. Toile designed bedding, bags, trays, and picture frames are just a few of the popular items that can be found at the store and on the Hazelnut Web site. Part of the proceeds go toward Katrina relief.
