REFINED GIFTS FOR HOME AND BABY

A shop specializing in unique vintage finds, housewares, gifts and children's items.

Located in the historic Midcoast Maine town of Damariscotta, The Kingfisher & The Queen believes in a home filled with curated, quality pieces that add depth and tell a story. Embracing the quieter, slower life and rugged allure of coastal Maine has influenced our appreciation for clean,

elegant, well-made items that celebrate the beauty of the everyday. Our collection of unique vintage finds as well as new housewares, gifts, and children’s items is a reflection of our love for traditional with a twist.

“I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June.”

—L.M. MONTGOMERY

 

Owners Prudence and Roger Kiessling’s passion for collecting vintage and quality pieces inspired them to create The Kingfisher & The Queen. Their hope is to make the shop feel like an extension of their own home, which is in nearby Alna, Maine, where they live in a rambling 1700’s era shipping merchant’s farmhouse. With a background in both English and advertising, as well as being a paper collage artist, Prudence’s passion for styling and decorating has led to a detailed and eclectic curated collection at the shop. Roger and Prudence welcome you to come embrace the everyday beauty of the home, whether it be with linen tablecloths, handmade pottery, or wooden toys from Europe.
