The Tin Woodsman – Oregon
Tin Woodsman pewter was born in 1985, when Jim and Deborah’s closest friends decided to shut down their pewter studio. Deborah leapt at the idea of learning pewtersmithing and turning it into a hobby of her own. Within three years, it was obvious Deborah’s “hobby” was taking over the Chapman home.
Deborah’s first artistic explorations were in ceramics and costume design, whereas Jim’s were in woodworking and bookmaking. By melding their knowledge and experiences and encouraging their staff to do the same, the company continues to evolve and grow.
Over twenty years later, Jim and Deborah feel blessed to work together in such a satisfying venture. Enjoy the result of the integration of beauty and function, home and work, passion and craft that has become The Tin Woodsman Pewter Company.

Harmony Hollow – Ann Arbor, Michigan
Harmony Hollow is a family-owned business, founded in Arizona in 1969 by Jeff Cross, who passed away in 1977. Jeff's founding spirit lives on in Harmony Hollow's new home in Ann Arbor, Michigan, also the home of the University of Michigan.
Just as Harmony Hollow bells and chimes have a distinctive sound, they also have a unique look - virtually all of their bronze bells have seashells cast into their sides. The seashell is a symbol of a vision that Jeff Cross had one day while walking along the beach. Jeff picked up a seashell and held it to his ear, and of course heard the roar of the surf, which Jeff came to think of as the sound of Nature's pulse. When a bronze windbell is hung outside, where the wind gently rocks it, it creates a sound that helps you get back in touch with Mother Nature's pulse.
