WILLIAM YEOWARD IS STOPPING BY

When I was in London, the rented flat I stayed in was above William Yeoward’s store on the King’s Road, and I remember staring in at his beautiful designs while waiting for the bus. But why go all the way to London, when the noted British designer and man behind the eponymous line of crystal is coming here? Meet him at Madison on Feb. 8 and get him to sign and date the bottom of any piece you buy. And relief, they’ll be carrying some of his Country collection by then, which is less expensive than his traditional pieces.
