General Info

We opened The Marble Faun Books & Gifts in the summer of 2013, in historic Salem, Massachusetts, with a vision for an eclectic shop, celebrating our love of literature, vintage and Victorian items as well as the history and culture of our unique region. We sell our favorite things, and strive to be exclusive by designing and crafting many of our items, including jewelry, bookmarks, stationery sets, and greeting cards. We offer customized tea, rich soy candles, and fragrant soaps and lotions made in the USA. The variety of books we offer has been carefully selected, including classics, humor, Steampunk, history, and supernatural fiction. We also offer antique books of our favorite classics and our collection is always changing. Many of our items are related to historic Salem, Massachusetts, as well as local authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne and his contemporary Edgar Allan Poe. We also love all things Jane Austen, and offer many custom “Austen” items. Look for our extensive Sherlock Holmes selection too.We opened The Marble Faun Books & Gifts in the summer of 2013, in historic Salem, Massachusetts, with a vision for an eclectic shop, celebrating our love of literature, vintage and Victorian items as well as the history and culture of our unique region.
