St. Nicholas Center Shop
From Our Collection — Et cetera
As we are transitioning to Virginia Theological Seminary we're offering some St. Nicholas items. These are duplicates or pieces that won't have a home at VTS, though some are dear to my heart.
These are hard to find items. Quantities are limited; most are just a single one available. Do check back from time to time to see what's here. If you'd like to be notified when new things are listed, email us.
The new listings are spoken for very quickly—my apologies if you're not able to see them or are disappointed. Others will be posted from time to time. There will be MANY more coming!
Also, consider the symbols from our original traveling exhibit.
