BEST JEWELRY IN NEW YORK
As a former full-time buyer for indie jewelry store Catbird, Old Hollywood owner Tiffany Porter has a talent for discovering distinctive young designers. She launched this 300-square-foot Greenpoint nook in October, focusing on vintage-inspired accessories. Around twenty lines are displayed in the drawers of an antique wardrobe and dangling off shelves. Many are exclusive to the store, like VeridiAum’s leather and rose gold rings, the chunky scarab and quill trinkets from Withering Elm, and elaborate layered necklaces strewn with vintage brooches by Harlow in Chains. The prices are excellent, too: starting at $20 for a brass charm bracelet and topping out at $300 for an oversize gold cocktail ring.

BROOKLYN’S BEST ENTREPRENEURS
TIFFANY PORTER + ALEX SHULHAFER OF OLD HOLLYWOOD.
Vintage buyer Tiffany Porter cultivated over the years a time-leaping collection of nostalgia from roaring flapper to rockabilly to moxie mod. In fall 2008 she opened Old Hollywood in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, to showcase and sell her wares, a boutique fine-tuned by partner Alex Shulhafer. The main display case in the store (pictured) includes a handmade, vintage-inspired bathing suit by Elizabeth O'Brien Berg, a mermaid tail necklace by Audilou, and a taxidermy pheasant, personally caught and stuffed for Tiffany.
