About Us.

Hi, we’re Rob and Brittany. We started Sampsons in 2013 following a chance encounter while out for a stroll with our dog. But our love for collecting started long before the serendipitous moment we stumbled upon what would become our first retail location. In fact, both our grandparents were antique collectors—a significant reason why we started our business and have such an admiration for antiques, decorative arts, and fine jewelry. 

With a background in jewelry trade and a genuine respect for old-world items, we started Sampsons to offer one-of-a-kind pieces at accessible prices. Specializing in hand-selecting unique goods from all over Europe and North America, we want to share each collection’s story with a new generation. We hope that when shopping with us, you experience the thrill of the hunt just as much as you do the joy of the find.
