It's hard to believe Sue and I have had our 5th anniversary at DoveTail Antiques and that we have also been voted "One of the Best" in Williamsburg each of those five years! We are grateful to our many customers from Williamsburg, Virginia and many other areas of the country - we have many friends and customers from all over the USA! Williamsburg is a wonderful destination and we have been very happy to meet many dedicated "antiquers" from all over when they visit our Historic Triangle. We are making every effort to provide the best customer service and nicest antiques so that whether our customer is local or long distance, they can always remember DoveTail Antiques as satisfying experience and great place to come back to for their next visit.
We are continuing to carry the same styles of merchandise as before plus a greatly expanded section including quilts, antique bedspreads, coverlets and a large selection of country furniture and home accessories. We are proud of our store - our merchandise is very attractive AND reasonably priced. The response has been overwhelming so far and we are redoubling our efforts to provide a greater selection. Please come see the "country goods" – pictures don't do it justice!
As usual, we have Virginia's finest collection of antique American, English, German and French clocks. DoveTail Antiques has established a reputation for having unique and uncommon clocks - and we are proud of the fact that they are sold in operating condition. We tell everyone - "You can buy any clock you'd like, but you can't have it until it works perfectly!" Jeff also works at Williamsburg Clocks and makes every effort to ensure complete customer satisfaction with every clock. We also have many unique and wonderful pocketwatches - from the early 1802 Henry Hopkins fusee to the more recent Waltham, Elgins and Hamiltons (to name a few) from the 1900's. Our selection of railroad pocketwatches is exceptional and we always offer a group of "budget-busters" for those just beginning their collections. Jeff has also gone far and wide to locate a fine selection of unique mens and ladies watches, watch pins and chains - all from the 1800's and early 1900's.
We have also entered a new endeavor - antique radios and phonographs. We have a nice group of Victrola and Columbia phonographs that we are restoring. Our goal is to have all working perfectly so our customers can fully enjoy the experience of hearing the proper sound from each phonograph! And each one comes with its own set of records to get you started. We have also purchased a wonderful collection of antique radios from the early 1900's up through the 1940's. We are in the process of restoring them also - they are beautiful works of art that deserve to live another day. Watch our website - the radio section will be expanding.
