Pineapples

The pineapple is recognized widely as a sign of hospitality and welcome, and nowhere more than in Newport, where it has become a symbol of this bustling seaport town. As lore has it, a pineapple displayed indicated a ship's recent return from a distant port, bringing exotic goods with it.

As a reminder of Newport, a decorative touch, or an object of desire for avid pineapple collectors, the Ball & Claw always includes many pineapple-themed items among our offerings.
