If you love antiques and willing to make an investment, head over to Sack's Antiques in Marblehead,…read moreacross from The Landing. The old timer that works there is the best guy, he will tell you the history of his antiques and enjoys telling you about them. The furniture they have there is insane - I admired this 18th century English Chair that looks like a thrown - it looks like it belongs in a museum rather than for sale. The craftmanship on the furniture is inspiring and reminiscent of a time where detail to wood was hailed.

It's in a small space but every inch is covered in coolness. I called to see if they had a philodendron. They said they would text me when they had some in. I can't think of many local businesses who would call or text someone back when something was in stock. The owners are very knowledgeable. I have a tendency to kill plants and they gave me useful advice for the welfare of the plant. It was a bit large and the owner (Eric I believe?) carried it to my car. Seriously what a class act. Shop small and don't overlook this little gem of a shop!

The woman working there, not sure if she was the owner or not, asked us to come back later because she was " eating breakfast" and had an " important" phone call to make. She then said "so if you could come back later or whatever." whatever is right, because we will never be back. Don't be open if you don't want customers.

The shopkeepers are super friendly and even showed me the inside of the former bank vault which was decorated like the Pirates of the Carribbean ride with treasures and a pirate skeleton. I asked to smell the Peach Melba tea and they actually bagged a bit for me to try at home. So nice. (And yes it was good) Definitely a great place to find some gifts for the tea lover in your life!
