Rare Device is a small, locally run boutique in San Francisco, California, that curates a varied array of items for the home, personal use, and family. Each object is selected for its craftsmanship and usefulness, with many items produced locally and a broad international mix from places such as Japan, Sweden, Canada, and the Philippines. The shop's environment blends contemporary design with a playful yet welcoming vibe, and its on-site gallery hosts monthly art shows and community events, including workshops, book signings, and trunk shows, featuring independent artists with distinctive voices. Viewed as both a retail space and a platform for artistic expression, the business emphasizes community engagement alongside its product offerings. In early 2019, Rare Device announced the closure of its Noe Valley location, while its San Francisco storefront at 600 Divisadero Street remains active.
