Demos & Displays this Summer Season

On Saturday, July 18 from 10am to 4pm, I will be at the Franklin Pierce Homestead in Hillsborough, NH, casting spoons in a circa 1750 antique bronze spoon mold. If you can't make it to the demonstration at the Homestead, you can watch a casting demo from the comfort of your home on the video page of my website.

We're also gearing up for the annual League of NH Craftsmen Fair in Sunapee, NH August 1-9. The new Queen Anne Tea Service will be on display in the "Living With Crafts" exhibit throughout the week. Come take a look; it's a beautiful presentation.

I've been very busy this month fulfilling orders for graduation, wedding and baby gifts! It's that time of the year. However, I do manage to take breaks for a brief spin on my mountain bike.

Consider taking time to visit us this summer... We're open 7 days a week in July and August!

Monthly Raffle Winner

Congratulations to Sarah Benet, our June winner of Rosebud Earrings. Your flowers may be pelted and flattened by rain drops now, but they'll bounce back!.

Each month, we select a winner of our monthly gift of a pair of Gibson Pewter Earrings. For July, we'll be awarding a pair of our dramatic Dragonfly Earrings. Warm, dry weather should bring them out in droves as soon our monsoon season is past.

Anyone who registers in the box in the right-hand corner of the website receives periodic updates about our new products and promotions, and those names are among those we select from each month.

Enjoy the Warm Glow of Summer in Style

Set the mood for a romantic dinner al fresco. Great for summer eves, especially in the screen porch, or gazebo, our 3" Candleholder will bring warm and light to your summer meals. When things turn chilly later, it will be handy indoors as well.

The 3" Candleholder is a modern form that I designed a few years ago. A number of my customers asked for a dish to go under their pillar candles and this design was the end result. It has sturdy, wide base and a nicely flared lip to catch any stray wax. Each candleholder comes with a locally made scented candle..

View our full selection of candle holders to meet your lighting needs with style and substance.
