About Us

Our Story

 Artful Ruins™, Art & All Natural Handmade Soaps & Lotions specializes in Original Art & Photography, hand painted Wallets, Purses and Bags, Signs, Gifts & Specialty Items, as well as the amazing authentic Greek Iconography and Byzantine style artwork of San Diego’s now local artist, Emmanuel Saltis, originally from Naxos Greece.   Our on-line shop exclusively carries our amazing line of all natural soaps, lotions and skin care called Mortar & Pestle skincare™.  This is our very own signature line of natural handmade soaps, lotions, parfums & cologne, tonics and shave creams and specialty skincare items!   We take custom orders for hand-painted or penned calligraphy, hand-painted signs, furniture, reprints and specialty jobs.  

Our actual shop & art gallery was located on the north end of 30th street at Adams Avenue in the Antique Row area of East University Heights in San Diego CA. We closed the store front to focus on our on-line production.   You can place  your order using the Shop Now link or by sending us a  message using the Contact Us form above.  We can plan a coffee meet up locally or ship your items directly to you.   

Thank you for shopping with us!
