And when you're searching for a one-of-a-kind piece, there are gems to be had here for sure. There is more new than there is lightly used only to enhance more of what we can offer to our clients.
What we represent.........
Everything at Rivertown Consignments is curated by a discerning eye, so there's a definite point of view to our inventory.
