It looks small from the outside, three decorated windows with unusual flair, but open the middle door and a surprise awaits. Miriam Green is spacious, well arranged, neat, exceptionally clean, and home to two shop Persian cats. With main focus rare and out-of-print books housed in stunning bookcases everywhere, complemented by a gallery of six Connecticut artists. The display cases are filled with so many different objects, yet they all blend--opera glasses, art glass, porcelain, silver, jewelry, miniatures especially Bergmann bronzes, watches, clocks, model soldiers, even a sterling mounted alligator portfolio for telegrams. Everywhere you look there is something else tastefully arranged. A strong collection of art and early pottery, 17th, 18th and 19th c etchings, stunning bronze sculptures, period mirrors, Miriam Green is a disappearing venue, sole proprietor, actual antiques and rare books, and someone expert enough to educate. no credit cards but definite negotiation is the philosophy.

One more fossilized philosophy, Miriam Green does not sell on-line, though would like to see her website more active.

Recommend for the connoisseur, this is not a flea market.
