In the heart of Old Town Alexandria, Silverman Galleries is one of the Metro D.C. area's longest established antiques businesses still under original ownership. Mr. Silverman founded the shop as Capitol Hill Antiques in 1958, and moved here when his historic rowhouse was eliminated in a 1970s expansion of the Library of Congress. The LARGE, DIVERSE AND DEFINITELY ANTIQUE inventory reflects the owner's wide ranging interests and experience.
The son of a platinumsmith to the diamond trade, Mr. Silverman always keeps a broad selection of antique and estate jewelry. It covers the 18th and 19th centuries, Georgian to Victorian, through Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The store is especially known for original PLATINUM AND DIAMOND RINGS of the early 20th century, selected with an eye to fine workmanship and beautiful design.
