Full disclosure: I am a big Nicholas Cage fan. So, when our Gansett Cruises tour guide told us that…read moreformer Newport mansion owner/resident Nicholas Cage frequented Scrimshanders due to his love of scrimshaw and his nautical and paleontological interests, this became a must-visit spot for me. I fanned out on the boat when I heard that factoid and then later in the store - to my husband's amusement. (I grilled the two staffers who were working that evening about Nicolas Cage ) Scrimshanders is a small store, but it is packed with what you could get as unique souvenirs/gifts but also inventory for more serious collectors ($$$). As a personal trinket for myself, I bought a nautical knotwork bracelet. For my musician husband, I gifted him a whalebone guitar pick that had hand painted illustration on it; it was a perfect gift that would serve as a way for him to remember our first trip to Newport together.

The selection of jewelry was large and so very breathtaking, yet at reasonable cost for such quality. We were fortunate to meet the lovely owner, Karen, who described many of the pieces offered there as well as the services provided to assist customers as they select gifts for themselves or others. She was fascinating as she thoroughly described any piece we happened to notice. It was obvious that service here is wonderful as Karen is extremely knowledgeable of her stock. The nautical signal flags collection is captivating. Looking at all of the shiny sterling silver charms made me imagine a whole new "huge jewelry box" that I could create for summer outfits!!! I love nautical and if you do, don't hesitate to visit Style Newport at your earliest opportunity!!
