Rick Ramsey and Margaret Lancaster<\/p><\/div>\n

Rick Ramsey and Margaret Lancaster are sharing the lifelong dream of owning a store filled with artisan, beautiful and often over-the-top home d\u00e9cor. \u201cWe are drawn to things with a hip or chic design, something unusual, if not unique, and often high-end,\u201d says Ramsey.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re especially skilled at finding the perfect home embellishment or style that customers may not have known they were looking for,\u201d says Lancaster. The couple describes their store as \u201ca curated collection of unique gifts for the discerning treasure hunter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before opening Dog and Pony Show, Lancaster lived in New York, Paris and Los Angeles, working in leadership positions for companies Est\u00e9e Lauder, Lanc\u00f4me and Brighton Collectibles. Ramsey, an Asheville native, also has experience working for big-name companies including Bon March\u00e9, Meyers-Arnold and Gap.<\/p>\n

Dog and Pony Show is located at 59 Haywood Street in Asheville. Learn more at DogandPonyShow.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
