After checking into our hotel, we ventured out to explore the city. I've had on my list for some time to visit a shop I found online. Years ago, in fact, while searching for aptware, I found a beautiful platter in this charming online shop, L. Becker Flowers. It has been one of my favorite purchases of all time. I adore it! 

 You can see it below in several vignettes in my hutch...

The shop is tucked down a street, nestled in, almost a secret...

I knew this was the place when I saw that square chandelier... Have you ever? 

The shop is quite small, and filled with beautiful finds ~ each with a story and chosen with care.

The plates below are a set of 12 ~ one for each month of the year...

Loved these round boxes with inlaid tortoise and mother of pearl...

Apparently Martha Stewart used to frequent the shop and chose glassware and such for photo shoots. I can see why. Every single thing is interesting and special, and sits in a perfectly curated vignette. She also bought a similar square chandelier to this one for her home in Connecticut. I love a good story!

I am happy to report that Hamilton is the most and everything.
