Maybe it was David Skinner’s early introduction to antiques that have made of his store one of the best antique shops in Charleston. Or maybe it’s his impeccable and exclusive taste when it comes to the pieces he sells. Whatever it is, he has become a prominent fixture on the ever competitive King Street.
Best known perhaps for his impressive collection of top period lighting, Skinner also has an outstanding collection of furniture and antiquities ranging from the 17th to 19th century, primarily from Europe. But when it comes to prized possessions, perhaps nothing beats his enviable repertoire of Caribbean objects, rumored to be the world’s largest.
