Description: Buckhead retailing is dominated by the huge malls Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza, but there are also plenty of small shops with unusual merchandise. The district covers a big area, some say all the way to Piedmont Road as well as up and down Peachtree Road. Architectural Accents, 2711 Piedmont Rd. NE, is full of fireplace surrounds, old tiles, antique frames, and more antique locks, handles, and window hardware than you can imagine. Seeing Is Believing, 3167 Peachtree Rd. NE, carries the most unusual eyewear. Staff at the Beverly Bremer Silver Shop, 3164 Peachtree Rd. NE, can find replacements for damaged or missing pieces to complete heirloom silverware. Beverly Hall Furniture Galleries, 2789 Piedmont Rd. NE, has handsome, new traditional pieces and carries contemporary items made by traditional manufacturers.
