Our Artisans

We are committed to finding fine products to sell from creative artisans within the USA. We are of the belief that it is essential to our philosophy of selling quality merchandise, to make every effort to find these products from our own American entrepreneurs, so that we are supporting those small business owners who possess the creativity to produce the products that enrich our lives with beauty and better living.

Our artisans include a designer from New York City, The Echo of the Dreamer, who creates one of-a-kind jewelry using semi-precious stones, fresh water pearls, opals of all sizes, and other unique stones, all set in a perfectly weighted sterling silver setting. We are enthralled with the quality, beauty, and energy of these bracelets, necklaces, and rings. Any of these pieces would be the perfect, unique addition to any bride’s wedding dress. We are hopeful that any bride-to-be, or anyone who appreciates the quality and creativity that is evident in this jewelry, will understand that these are pieces meant to be worn for a lifetime. We actively encourage the bride-to-be to think outside of traditional jewelry and select pieces that reflect her true persona and style.

We also feature an up-and-coming artisan, Daniel Perotto, who uses reclaimed wood from barns, old factories, estate sales, and other places in his original woodwork. In our store, you can find the antique fireplace mantel he installed (with the custom insert of horizontally cut logs), hand-hewn coffee tables, and reclaimed barn wood frames--all of which are for sale.

Carol Schneider is the creator/designer of silk scarves and totes by mixing colors and patterns to transform the fabrics from vintage and antique kimonos. She is always experimenting with new ideas to keep her designs fresh. Those who have purchased these beautiful and unique scarves and totes still have them after ten or more years of very frequent use. They make cherished gifts that will certainly make the recipient appreciate such a unique and special one of a kind present.

We recently acquired several lovely Made in America items from The Buyer’s Market: The American Made Show. Items in blown glass, a new line of felt hats, scarves and gloves, jewelry made from 2,000-year-old glass vessels from the time of the Roman Empire in Israel, and unique pottery.

We are always looking for artisans' crafts made in the USA so that we may continue to support our local and American made business ventures.
