Sharon and her beautiful collection of antiques and jewelry from Africa was just the cherry on top of our trip to Boston. It's rare in antique type stores to actually get to meet the person behind the collection and it made it so much more special! I got some beautiful silver rings and a bracelet, vintage post cards & playing cards, and a silver butter knife. I would've bought so much more if only I didn't have to get on a plane!! Thank you for sharing your stories and your beautiful things, Sharon!

Awesome shop with unique finds! This is not your typical antique store. You never know what you're going to find here, from ancient African tools, art, paintings, figurines, old original comics, postcards, and drawings, to jewelry and hats. Pictured is a recent bracelet find. Sharon is amazing and knows her stuff!

Incredible store with extremely friendly staff. Storefront is small but packed with unique stuff from around the world, and the owner will not hesitate to have a conversation about each piece you're looking at. I often frequent antique shops and consignment galleries, and there was probably a more unique selection here than the majority of those I've been to.Was a pleasure shopping here!

Saw the African masks and wanted to see more. Love the shop. Sharon was very knowledgeable, showed many many masks and jewelry. I bought a ring and will be back. Parking is easy to find. .

One of my all-time favorite antique shops. Exquisite collection of African art. The jewelry is beautiful. The prices are reasonable. Sharon was a pleasure to speak with. She is charming and helpfully share’s her extensive knowledge . This store is outstanding. I have never left this store without a purchase.

Sharon and Joan are incredibly helpful and simply delightful. I came into the shop looking for vintage silverware for food photography. They had some gorgeous pieces to choose from. When I mentioned that I could also use some vintage soup bowls, they found some for me and wouldn't even charge me! Besides the antiques, Joan's jewelry is another reason to visit this shop. Very original!

From intricately woven Middle Eastern textiles, late 1800s pharmaceutical catalogue cards, ancient hand carved African tribal beads to a broad assortment of buttons, pendants and vintage cufflinks, this shop's eye-catching cross-section of colors, patterns and textures, make for an I-Spy puzzle hard to resist. Prices are reasonable and if you can't afford the thunder-bolt this time around and refuse to leave empty handed, records, retro Life magazines and eclectic trinkets provide immediate gratification. Lovely, sacred, stunning and worldly this gem is among the best of it's kind.
