We live in an increasingly disposable world where we go to big box stores to buy stuff with labels that say "Made in XYZ". Two days, two weeks, or two months after we bring it home, it's broken, can't be fixed, and we throw it away and buy another one. It's part of 21st century life. We are all guilty. We all know there should be a better way.
 
We have decided to present an alternative for those who want something a bit better and want to invest their hard earned dollars in objects that are well designed, well executed, and are a better value. We have assembled a group of artists and artisans whose obsession is to do things the right way. These are people who care about their work and fully expect it to last for generations. Come talk to them about the details of their products. Bring your children to see demonstrations of hand work at its finest. Consider adding to an existing collection or starting a new one. This is your opportunity to get to know the maker of the fine objects that you and your family could own for generations.
