Sisters on an adventure! ⚓️

Julia Pyatt Kaminski and her sister, May Pyatt, touring the Gatun Locks at the Panama Canal, circa 1956. Captured during a Simmons Cruise aboard the Olympia, this photograph offers a glimpse into Julia’s love of travel and the adventures she enjoyed along the way.

When you tour the Kaminski House today, you discover the stories of the people who called it home. Photographs like this one take us beyond Georgetown and offer another glimpse into Julia’s life. 📸

A Closer Look into the Kaminski House!

Some of the most fascinating pieces in the Kaminski House reveal their history through the smallest details.

This Charleston-made mahogany slant-front desk features a beautifully fitted interior with four pigeonholes, a valance drawer, recessed drawers, fluted document drawers, and a series of graduated drawers. One of the most intriguing details is a secret compartment concealed within the desk. The craftsmanship is equally remarkable, from the cock-beaded drawers to the graceful ogee feet.

How early do you think this desk dates?
