Shops

 

Whitby Jet Jewellery (Simpson's of Whitby) make a variety of jewellery in Whitby Jet and Silver. They are, of course, based in Whitby - you can visit their shop - and they source their jet locally.

 

The Victorian Jet Works in Whitby is an 1897 jet works - a museum still a working craft shop.

 

Not exactly a shop, but this is a little treat worth mentioning here:

"Edward Gorey's Dracula Toy Theatre"!

 

Music
