The Christmas Shop

The Christmas Shop Delighting visitors and locals since 1961, The Christmas Shop is the oldest holiday shop on the East Coast. Open every day EXCEPT Christmas

Our selection, curated over 6 decades, features unique ornaments and collectibles from regional, American and international artisans. The Christmas Shop is well known for regional ornaments, especially representing Colonial Williamsburg and Virginia, but we also have items from other Mid-
Atlantic and Southern designers. We are one of Byers' Choice oldest distributors, and our Byers' collection is

always fabulous! Chief among our international specialties are our Russian carved figures, Russian Matryoshka nesting dolls and German Smokers (yes, we have incense for the Smokers!). Our Olde World painted glass ornament collection is the largest in the region. We also carry many international small artisan design houses:
Carved from olive wood which has been harvested in Bethlehem
Vietnamese inlaid wood
Egyptian Museum blown and etched glass
Authentic Imperial Cloisonne from China

If you have a favorite pet, sport, hobby, musical instrument or holiday story . . . we have the perfect ornament for your tree or your collection!
