Sometimes the most unique Nantucket homes are hidden in plain sight. One of our favorites is called the Carriage House, originally built in 1834 as outbuilding for Henry Coffin’s brick mansion on Main Street. Tucked behind a hedge, this unassuming house is a perfect marriage of traditional Nantucket architecture and modern design. Noted architect Hugh Newell Jacobsen led a renovation of the Carriage House in the early 2000s, transforming the interior into an open, modern living space. Nantucket Looms’ Master Weaver and Partner Rebecca Peraner was called in to replicate an archival linen and ramie fabric designed by Nantucket Looms co-founder Andy Oates. Together with her team, Becky worked to weave fabrics by hand to upholster sofas at the Carriage House.

You can read more about the Carriage House project, the history of Nantucket Looms textiles, and more in “Nantucket Looms: A Legacy of Style”, soon to be in its second printing.

Anyone for tea? The Moon Garden at the Mitchell House is the perfect setting for slow summer mornings, late afternoon high teas, or a dinner under the stars. The Mitchell House on Upper Main Street was once called home by whale oil merchants. Behind the stately home lies an unexpected hidden garden, designed by Laura Davison of Sean O’Calllaghan Landscaping. This sequestered shady area is a quiet oasis right in the heart of downtown. Here, Nantucket Looms set the table for brunch, including a painted earthenware mug by Nantucket artist Jeanne Van Etten (Jeannevanetten) and faux bois pot and mugs for serving tea. This intimate outdoor space is featured in our book Nantucket Looms: A Legacy of Style with Linda Jane Holden.

September on Nantucket is when one season begins to give way to another. You can hear the first rustle of leaves while the warm sun still invites us to the beach. The summer crowds have largely departed, and the island settles into a quieter rhythm. We’re still here, welcoming the change of season and filling the shop with new pieces that reflect the colors, textures, and warmth of early fall.

Our artists have been inspired by another beautiful summer on Nantucket—sunrises and sunsets, sailboats, open spaces and the incredible quality of light that makes the island so special. They have been busy capturing that inspiration in new works of art.

Stop by the shop or visit us online to see what’s new.

Here at Nantucket Looms, we are collectors of the whimsical, the curious, the vintage and, sometimes, the comical—pieces that pique our curiosity and tell a story that may not always be immediately apparent.

We believe a home should reflect the personality of those who live there. And, in our opinion, it’s far more interesting when a few collections are involved.

Build your collection with our selection of vintage and antique pieces newly added to the website.

For Nantucketers, dining on the beach is a summer tradition, an extension of our homes with the best possible view. We set the table with the same care, bringing quality pieces that make the moment feel special. Cheers to soaking up the last few beach evenings of the summer.
