Best of Boston

For almost as long as there’s been a Scituate Harbor, it seems like there’s been a Welch Company. What started as a general/hardware store during the 19th century is now a staple for home décor and gifts. Alongside the requisite seashell-patterned accessories, you’ll find locally made Matouk linens, ultra-soft Brahms Mount blankets, and pretty Mariposa tableware ripe for the picking. And with a bridal registry program for the next generation of South Shore denizens, it’s safe to say this local gem will continue to shine well into the 21st century.
