I couldn't be more pleased with the service and products at the Historical Emporium. The vest was of the highest quality in both materials and workmanship. I ordered it online and it fit perfectly. I have since purchased 3 more vests from them and a pocket watch. I have been very happy with the service and products.

I purchased this vest for my son who was in a production of Beauty and the Beast and his role as Cogsworth required him, as head butler, to wear a very stylish vest when he became "human again". This vest was spectacular! The vest is made well, and is a beautiful look. Although the purchase was for my son's play, he will wear it proudly for other events. I highly recommend Historical Emporium for high quality items and excellent service! This vest arrived within a few days of my ordering it and I couldn't have been more please with every aspect of their service!

I should have bought a hat like this a long time ago......then I would not have needed ear-skin surgery, My transaction via the internet was executed as we agreed. I recommend this company

The tie tack unfortunately arrived broken within it's box. It appears that when someone shipped it they did not check the inventory within the box before shipping it out. This was a great disappointment.

The tie itself is very nice. Unfortunately my fiance and I were not expecting it to be a clip on. This was somewhat disappointing.

My fiance and I love these boots! They fit well and are well made. Getting used to walking on a leather sole is taking some getting used to but they are gorgeous and well made shoes. I am very happy I made the investment with them.

The jacket is comfortable and leaves a lot of room to breathe. It was in great condition and my fiance looks forward to wearing it at our wedding!

This is probably the most comfortable dress shirt that my fiance now owns. It's comfortable and has a lot of room to breathe and move in it. It's definitely a great buy!

This is a nice cotton cravat but don't expect slick or silky. The width is nice and it works well for the knot shown in the picture; but, it is a little short when properly crossed behind the neck and tied in front. I would recommend this cravat for period dress for late 1700's to mid 1800's. Historical Emporium shipped quickly and it arrived within days of ordering it.

EVERYTHING WAS GREAT THE SERVICE, DELIVERY, CUSTOMER SERVICE ESPECIALLY NOEL. HE WAS VERY COOPERATIVE AND HANDLED EVERYTHING VERY SMOOTHLY AND EFFICIENTLY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO MY FRIENDS AND I WOULD DEFINITELY ORDER MY western WEAR THROUGH THIS COMPANY AGAIN. THEIR MERCHANDISE IS HIGH QUALITY IN EVERY DETAIL. P.S. THANKS AGAIN NOEL FOR THE GREAT SERVICE.

I ORDERED THE WHITE SHIRT AND I AM VERY WELL PLEASED WITH IT. IT IS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN IT WAS ON THE INTERNET. I ONLY FEEL THAT WHEN YOU ORDER A BIGGGER SIZE THE SLEEVES SHOULD NOT BE SO LONG. I HAD TO TAKE IT TO BE ALTERED BECAUSE THE SLEEVES WERE TOO LONG. THANKS AGAIN NOEL FOR THE SUPERB WAY YOU HANDLED MY ORDER. I WILL RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ALL MY FRIENDS. I ALSO WILL ORDER FROM TJIS COMPANY IN THE FUTURE IF I NEED ANY MORE western WEAR. THE MERCHANDISE IS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY. I ALSO SUBMITTED A REVIEW ON THE JET BLACK SHIRT. YOU MAY READ BOTH. P.S. THANKS AGAIN NOEL ON THE SUPERB SERVICE IN HANDLING MY ORDER.

I love this hat. It looks great. It is a bit rounder than I expected--my head is a bit more oval--but from a distance it looks just fine

Looks great and fits well. I can't figure out if the pockets are workable, but it is snazzy.

I just want to thank Noel and the staff at Historical Emporium for all they did to make sure the clothing made it to us before my daughters School Play. It seemed as though your clothing was the most Authentic of the Era for the play Pirates of Pizzants and my daughter stood out among the other cast. I would be very proud and honored to purchase from your company again and let others know of the Historical Emporium when and if they are in need of vintage clothing. I have already given your name to the school so they can pass along the information to all the students. Thank you once again for all your help and expedience with my order. Toni Shourds

The Emporium offers reasonably-priced and (mostly) historically correct clothing and accessories. The emporium is my first choice for most 19th century garments.
