Home, James! customers have traveled the world and seen it all, according to Schreick, so when they enter this little store, painted in the bright yet calming shades of pistachio, robin's egg blue and coral, they want to see something new and different.

YOUTH IS SERVED: NEW LINES OF CHILDREN'S FLATWARE BOW

EAST HAMPTON, N.Y.-With a clientele that's one part celebrity, one part upper crust, Josef Schreick and David Cipperman, owners of Home, James!, a little gem of a shop on Main Street here, have given new meaning to the term "retail differentiation."

Although Home, James! has sold the top end of lines from companies like Raynaud, Gien, Spode, Mottahedeh and Arthur Price Silver since its inception, the shop recently branched out to include a line of proprietary table linens, glassware and dinnerware that its owners believe will further cement its standing in the community while possibly drawing attention from other, larger high-end retailers.
