All of my artware and tinware is hand-crafted, using USA-made tinplate and primarily 19th century tinsmith's tools.  


I make museum-quality tin items that are authentic, useful, and even beautiful.  


Many items are available right away.  Others are made-to-order. Each listing will indicate availability.


We welcome custom orders, but can only take such orders January-March each year.  Please contact us for details.

I don't sell anything I don't personally make, so you can be assured of quality.  


My reproduction tinware is based on research on original pieces, as well as museum and archival work. 


My artware, including Christmas ornaments and decorations, are inspired by items from the past, but with a modern twist.

While Karl is the only tinsmith in our household, everyone helps in running the business and making it successful.


We don't have employees, so you truly are buying artware, tinware, Christmas ornaments, and Christmas decorations from a family business.
