The Avenue just got a little more beautiful
GRAND GEM
In certain Boston circles, the go-to place for fine engagement and wedding rings has long been SHREVE, CRUMP & LOW. Now SC&L, the oldest jeweler and luxury brand in the country, has taken a shine to Greenwich, moving into a historic 1920s corner building on the Avenue. The business dates to 1796 and today is owned by David Walker and family, who were attracted both to this area and to the architecture of the building. What’s in store? Gorgeous rare gems such as a 16-carat pear-shaped canary diamond necklace with matching earrings, a large case of significant estate jewelry, exceptional diamonds and watches as well as wedding gifts, including Chelsea clocks and Lalique crystal. Wedding registry is available with fine china collections like Haviland, William Yeoward, Herend, Royal Copenhagen and others. The jeweler also carries “certified pre-owned” watches, brands such as Rolex, Cartier, NB Yaeger, IWC and Raymond Weil, which have attracted local shoppers. A unique facet of SC&L is the art collection, which will focus on contemporary art by local artists from Greenwich and New York. 125 Greenwich Avenue, 203-622-6205; shrevecrumpandlow.com
