It looks like a fur retailer pop-up called Maximilian is opening soon in downtown Walnut Creek where Z Gallerie used to be. Note that this is NOT the Italian clothing retailer with the same name. Check out their catalog here.

The incomparable team were third generation furriers with a determination and style that revolutionized the fur industry.
