Madame Mao's Dowry

Madame Mao’s Dowry is a fantastic gift boutique carrying a variety of tastefully chosen Chinese items. Porcelain, clothing, and authentic vintage Communist propaganda posters fill an organized space which makes shopping here that much more pleasurable. The items found here are of great quality, nothing that you will need to worry about falling apart on the plane ride home! I always bring visitors to Madame Mao’s when they are seeking something different from the mass produced goods at Xiang Yang Market. I also head for The Dowry when I’m looking for a house warming or birthday gift, as they have items priced from about 30RMB for little trinkets to 5000RMB for awesome furniture and art.  A bit of a walk down Fuxing Lu, Madame Mao’s Dowry can either be part of a stroll around the French Concession or a one stop destination shop.
 

Take Metro Line 1 to Changshu Rd. Station. Exit onto Huai Hai Rd and head southwest. Take a right on Fuxing Rd. Madame Mao’s Dowry will be on the right side about a block and a half down.
