Freedman’s creative energy is everywhere you look. You can see it in the graceful candlesticks and lamps, in the exquisite sculpture and wood carvings, decorative mirrors and boxes, handsome desktop valets and leather-bound bars, and in the clocks of all shapes, sizes, and designs. There’s a sense of sophistication and wonder with a touch of vintage timelessness in his blend of items.

“My goal…my idea,” Don explained, “is to figure out how to fill a home with items that are as unique as they are artistic.” Clearly he has succeeded in pleasing his customers, many return season after season. And they discover something new and eye-catching each time they visit.

Open daily, Freedman’s is one of the island’s most delightful and unusual stores for unique home accessories and gifts. Stop by this spring for a special clearance sale from April 28 to May 25— Don needs to make room for his exciting new summer designs.
