One a former diamond buyer, the other an FIT graduate, the Doyle sisters know jewelry. Their showroom displays a hand-selected collection of fine accessories that range from Victorian to art deco to contemporary.
Sort through drawers of pearls, rhinestones, and Bakelite — at insanely good prices. Peruse cuff links, gloves, hat pins, brooches, beaded necklaces, cigarette boxes, tie bars, hand mirrors, beaded bags, and opera glasses.
The sparse little shop has odd hours and is best reached by car or ferry, but — oh! — what an expertly curated gem. Owner Russell Whitmore is more than happy to give you the history behind the antique jewelry, curiosities, furniture, and cutting-edge designs.
