The Isaac Bell House features a display of late 19th century Aesthetic Movement furniture, ceramics and glass. These objects, collected by Newport families such as the Kings and Wetmores, share Japanese, European and American ornamental features with the Isaac Bell House, and represent the height of 1880s fashion.
