Champagne and Shopping: Gift Guide

Dec

02

The Cummer Museum’s annual Champagne and Shopping event is happening this Wednesday, December 3rd and Thursday, December 4th, with extended shop hours on Wednesday (open till 7 p.m.). Plus, shopping is some much better with a glass of complimentary bubbly in hand! Make sure to come by and check out all the wonderful, unique gifts the Cummer Shop has to offer this holiday season, including some by the great artisans below.

Statement necklaces are so in this season and Constance Beresford is way ahead of the game. Starting her business in 2006, with a background in floral and interior design, she has been using her keen eye for color and style to craft gorgeous one of a kind jewelry pieces. Stop by the Museum, (no admission required when visiting the Shop) to peruse Constance’s ever-evolving collection.

Sarah Oliver handbags are another shop favorite that come with a unique story. Each bag is made of hand knitted wool (and then felted to give it a thicker look) by a group of Senior Citizens known as The Purlettes. To learn more about their group, click here.
