| Welcome
to The home, james Collection, founded some
twenty years ago in East Hampton as makers
of exceptionally fine products for the home.
Attuned to an aristocracy of time and place
and event, our china, crystal and linens draw
inspiration from some of the most special
moments in history, and some of the most extraordinary
places on Earth. References range from Captain
Cook and his exploration of the South Pacific,
to Madame Pompadour and the court of Louis
XIV, to the beaches of Long Island’s
South Fork, with their glistening white sand
and beguiling sea creatures.
We update our classic designs
for contemporary use. China sets, created
in Portugal, feature large coffee mugs rather
than diminutive teacups. Our crystal goblets,
hand cut in England, are larger than the
classic dimensions, in keeping with American
preferences. Our weekend dishes, designed
originally for country homes, feature a
faux gold, able to travel uneventfully from
microwave to table to dishwasher.
Exceptional quality characterizes
all we offer. Whether it is the smooth,
satisfying feel of our tablecloths, the
substance of our napkins, or our flawless
crystal, our products demonstrate excellence
in design, materials and craftsmanship.
There is also a whimsy – an element
of surprise – in all our pieces. This
playful signature lends a relaxed, comfortable
feeling to any dinner gathering, no matter
how much planning and expense it has –
or has not -- entailed.
We
hope you’ll visit our stores in East
Hampton and Dallas and hold our products
in your hand. You will feel just how special
our tableware is -- how beautifully it respects
our client’s tastes and enables them
to welcome family and friends to a place
of rare style and warmth.
