Fodor's Expert Review William & Son

William Asprey, scion of a jewelry dynasty, sells his carefully chosen, British-made luxury goods using a friendlier and less formal approach. You'll find all sorts of items here that you didn't know you needed, like Pininfarina brushed aluminum retractable pencils, green crocodile backgammon sets, or a silver champagne bottle stopper. The jewelry is tasteful and subtle rather than knock-your-eyes-out, and the store will also do custom work.
