Holy cow. Large selection of vintage and estate jewelry, including some things I've only seen in books on antique jewelry before (lava cameos!); also some art pieces (small busts, an Erte vase) and vintage beaded purses. The setting is lovely, and the staff, a mother-daughter pair, very pleasant, helpful and knowledgable about the pieces. A large number of colored stones including two vitrines of amethysts that will knock your eyes out (with pearls! with diamonds! matched necklaces in 18" and 24" with encircled stones in rose gold!), in addition to diamonds and a large case that's mostly pearls, including several lovely seed pearl pieces and a Victorian-style diamond/pearl necklace to knock your eyes out. Also coral, turquoise, and more. There is a case and a half of garnet jewelry which assembled in one place what I'd been diligently stalking online, and here you can touch it and see in person if it will sparkle or not. Prices on the items I asked about seemed reasonable, and they were having a sale for Christmas, with little nibbles and ingredients for mimosas. Delightful.
