a token of thanks

Lauren Cossetini

Next time you find yourself searching high and low for the perfect gift, look no further than Token - located in the heart of Toronto’s art and design district.

Owner Karen Sykes takes great care when selecting the assortment for her Queen Street West store, and it is obvious when looking through the uniquely beautiful pieces Token has to offer. Here you can find everything from fragrant candles, to hand-crafted decorative tiles, to children’s tea sets sure to spoil the receiver to the point where a paper cup will never do again. Token also offers a variety of activities and books sure to keep your child stimulated, creative, and away from the television. Don’t have an upcoming birthday to buy for? You don’t need a special reason to visit the store; Token is the perfect place to treat yourself to something beautiful at the end of a long day.

Bring back snail mail with the selection of stationary, or grow your own herbs with an Eggling. Whatever the occasion (or non occasion) you will find everything you are looking for - and a few surprises - waiting for you at Token.
