Pacific Asia Museum Store, Pasadena

The Pacific Asia Museum is an Asian art museum located at 46 N. Los Robles Avenue. The museum was founded in 1971 by the Pacificulture Foundation, which purchased “The Grace Nicholson Treasure House of Oriental Art” from the City of Pasadena. Grace Nicholson donated the structure to the city for art and cultural purposes in 1943 and was a dealer in Native American and, later, Asian art and antiques. It houses some 15,000 rare and representative examples of art from throughout Asia and the Pacific Islands.

The museum store has an intimate Asian ambiance with friendly and helpful staff. The store carries a broad selection of hand-picked items you can choose from. There are art books, children's books, Asian clothing and jewelry, Japanese porcelain and furniture, and many others.
