His love for golf is evident in the photographs hung on the wall. A
model ship, once owned by his father, now adorns the fireplace mantle.
Mark’s desire to set Fine Threads apart from the mall atmosphere
is found in cabinets crafted in rich wood tones, sweaters displayed in
antique trunks and a shoe niche complete with a barbershop chair. Your
shopping experience is complete when your items are rung in on an early
1900’s cash register.
