History

A Niche In Tyme was founded in 1984 by Chuck, a Navy Veteran who combined his passion for antiques and collectibles into a bustling business following his military service. Building on knowledge and relationships developed during his world-wide deployments, Chuck offers a diversity of products to meet a variety of interests. All the jewelry sold in our store is selected and imported directly from artisans and manufacturers world-wide. These relationships, combined with Chuck examining and selecting each piece for its beauty and quality, allows for the finest products at the fairest prices possible. This allows prices at A Niche In Tyme to be significantly lower than other jewelry stores or even on-line.
