1661.0. "Nautical jewelry" by MUSKIE::WOLF (Steve Wolf @GBO. 414-738-1560) Tue Feb 05 1991 20:39

    I am looking for a necklace that looks like anchor chain.  Does anyone
    know of a source for such a thing, or of any place that specializes in
    nautical jewelry?

    There's a place in Wiscassett Me. that specializes in nautical
    jewelry. The name is Correia.  They have a mail order catalogue,
    carry high quality products and are not at all inexpensive.
    
    Regards,

re .1:

In fact, their prices are breathtakingly high (on a DEC salary at 
least).

It's A.G.A.Correa, in Wiscasset, ME.  He does quite a good business, with 
color ads appearing fairly regularly in most of the glossier yacht mags.  

Also, H.R.Hinckley Retail Store in Southwest Harbor, ME, caries some 
jewelry befitting a Hinckley owner and his/her partner.

    I can make you a very authentic looking anchor necklace quite
    inexpensively.  Would you prefer proof coil or BBB?

    AGA Correa tells me they have just what I am looking for, and is
    sending me a catalog.  I could not get a phone number from directory
    assistance for Hinckley.  Thanks for your responses, if you see
    anything else, let me know.

    Steve,
    
    I don't know if this is the Hinckley you're looking for, but in my 1990
    AT&T 800 directory there is a listing for:
    Hinckley Ship Store
    SouthWest Harbor, ME.      800-446-2553 (except from Maine)

1661.8Breathtaking!!ANGLIN::WOLFSteve Wolf @GBO. 414-738-1560Thu Feb 21 1991 13:096
    I got the catalog from AGA Correa, and they do have some very nice
    stuff.  However, the prices were probably the most breathtaking.  With
    this in mind, I would appreciate anything else that anyone might know
    of.
    
    thanks
