I normally really love shopping at thrift stores & consignment shops because it's fun -- I never…read moreknow what I'll find, I can often get better deals than retail, the quality of older items is often far superior to anything made in the 2010s+, and it's more sustainable and environmental to buy used with less packaging. So, I frequent a lot of these types of shops. This was my first time visiting this one in Montville. This shop was weird, though; when I approached the store front, there was a large table full of brand new Donald Trump hats and banners. It was only Trump, not any other celebrity or politician, etc., and it was all brand new, so obviously not used or vintage. We're not talking like vintage items from prior political campaigns, etc., which I do sometimes see at other antique and consignment shops. It felt really off-putting, and it made me not want to support the business, so I did not buy anything. I just wanted to shop, not be reminded of politics, and I didn't need to know the shop owner's political stance or preferred candidate. Awkward and weird. I would not return.

A beautiful example came up on the Petra Star website. I called Dimitria and had a great conversation with her about the ring. She let me know if I wasn't happy, she would gladly accept a return. I agreed to buy the ring, and she let me know if she sent it by fedex, I wouldn't have to pay the sales tax. How great! I received the ring which is amazing and beautiful. I am a very happy customer. Dimitria made it so easy and pleasant.

Lovely little Antiques Shop, right off the main road in Bozrah. Full of beautiful and unique finds,…read morealso offers a multitude of fun and creative events/classes, etc. Employees are seemingly very polite and nice, unless of course you do any actual business with them. While attempting to get a receipt or proof of sale for items owned by my Grandmother, the attitude immediately changed and they became incredibly rude and defensive. I fault myself for being surprised, seeing as I had already seen reviews on google which they had responded to incredibly rudely and negatively. I highly anticipate the same treatment for myself. After the incident concerning my Grandmother's items, my Mother and Aunt were asked to leave and told they were not welcome to return and the issue was left unresolved. While I understand no one appreciates being questioned about their business and style, you would still anticipate a level of decorum on part of the employees and also an accurate record of sales. However, I am no longer concerned about how this business is run, because I will also consider myself unwelcome there as well. Thank you, ladies for showing your true colors and allowing us to make an informed decision to take our business elsewhere.

I really wanted to love this place; I usually enjoy consignment shopping. However, on my first…read morevisit, it became apparent that someone is smoking in the store. I do not know if it is the owner(s) or an employee. The stench seemed strongest by the back room/maybe a bathroom(?), but it was powerful throughout the small shop. It was so bad that I could not stay for more than a few minutes because I have a history of chronic bronchitis. Regardless, no consignment or antique store should allow smoking indoors; it is damaging to the products. I was appalled to see wedding dresses there on consignment. Imagine a wedding dress that smells like cigarette smoke... Anyone in the resale business knows that cigarette smoke significantly lowers the values of antiques. I know some places seem to get away with it (The Victorian House in Franklin comes to mind), but I think there are more air vents and a wider space, so the smoke doesn't collect so easily. I wish they didn't allow it either, though. It's too bad; there did seem to be a nice selection of furniture & homewares here. I'm not sure if the smoke was a one-day deal or what, but I am extremely hesitant to go back, and I would not recommend consigning there.

For appetizers, we had the grilled cheese tomato soup dumplings and French dips which were delicious though the baguette was a bit too hard. For an entree we had the pesto ravioli which was fresh and perfectly al dente. The Mac and cheese that we had as a side was very heavy and a bit greasy. We also ordered a filet mignon since we were sharing between three people. It was perfectly cooked to medium and the demi glacé was perfect. Sharing the price fixe for 2 and ordering an additional entree was plenty for us and we got to try a variety of things. There is no kids menu but Jonathan, our server was nice enough to let us know which dudes or entrees the kitchen could customize to make kid-friendly. My daughter ordered the mac and cheese side and it was plenty for a kids entree. Overall, I think Beauty & Essex is fun for a special occasion dinner, even for a family dining either tween/teenage children. We saw mostly couples dining but didn't feel out of place for dinner at 6pm on a Monday night.

The sales lady looked upset that she had to help me because she was sitting down visiting with another woman. The blue plates were not priced and I asked the sales clerk what the price was. When she shared the price of the first plate, I said "ohhh". She interpreted this to mean that I couldn't afford to shop in the store. She looked at me and said, "If you think that is expensive, you won't be able to afford anything in here." I could not believe my ears. I asked the price of a second plate and tried to move on. She told me, "That plate isn't for sale." I'm a 57 year retired woman visiting from Los Angeles. I'm here in town for lots of shopping and the Sea Glass Festival, I'm pretty sure I have the money to buy a few blue plates and whatever else I want. Never in my life....today was an absolute first. Do not shop here, unless you enjoy being treated disrespectfully and having to search for help.
