Older catalogues shed light on
the jewelry and accessories of times past. Illustrations date the items we
collect and enjoy today, and help us understand how these lovely things were
worn and used.
It is also interesting to see how these accessories were priced over 100
years ago. Where possible, we have added pictures of the items
illustrated in the catalogue.
Originally a local jewelry shop, by the late 1800’s,
Daniel Low & Co. was distributing their gifts catalogue and selling
nationally via mail order.

From the front of this catalogue: "We are the largest dealers in the United
States in solid gold and sterling by mail. This branch of our business has
extended over a period of eleven years, increasing constantly… Our store
occupies the site of the historic First Church (erected 1634)… on the
corner of Essex and Washington, Salem, Massachusetts."

NOTE: According to Dorothy T. Rainwater’s book "American Jewelry
Manufacturers", the Daniel Low Company was established in 1867, and they
began as a little jewelry shop. Says Rainwater, "Daniel Low was largely
responsible for the spread of the souvenir spoon craze." He published his
first catalogue in 1893.
