Park Shelton Gems: Peacock Room and Emerald

          The Park Shelton lobby in Detroit sparkles thanks to entrepreneur Rachel Lutz. Last year she opened up The Peacock Room, a boutique filled with accessories, and new and vintage clothing.  This year Rachel opened Emerald, with an entrance on Woodward. Emerald sells unique gifts displayed on antique tables, many with historical significance. The table (shown left) is from the downtown defunct department store, Crowley’s. Rachel explained that Emerald is a temporary venture for now. It will be opened for about six months to see if the business is successful.  The photo on the right is from Peacock Alley’s costume jewelry collection. The price points start at about $20, but all the pieces are rich and stylish.
