The acronym stands for the nation's official name, encompassing 50 states, a federal district (Washington, D.C.), and various territories. The USA is renowned for its rich history, its cultural melting pot, and iconic landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty and the White House.

Craft & construction

Powerful magnets that actually hold. Our magnet strengths have a pull rating of at least 3 lbs, and go up to 7 lbs for larger pieces. These are not the cheaper ferrite/ceramic magnets. They are high quality neodymium and pack enough pull-strength to grip firmly and hold to a refrigerator with more than a single sheet of paper or photo between. Our magnets are bonded in our studio by an artisan with an industrial-strength adhesive to ensure they never come loose.

Hand-painted, marine-grade finish. Each hand-painted piece is carefully painted by an artisan right in our studio in Port Gamble, WA. The proprietary multistep process includes priming each piece followed by meticulous painting by hand in acrylics with fine detail work to bring the item to life with incredible detail. The final step adds a coating of marine-grade epoxy — a hard, clear finish that protects the artwork so our product can be used on a boat, outside, or other conditions highly resistant to fading or wear.

Certified American pewter. The antiqued finish is completely safe to touch — and the craft behind it has been refined over three decades. Each batch of pewter that arrives at our shop in Port Gamble, WA from an American supplier comes with a lab test showing the material is lead free.

Ready to give. Every item arrives attached to a backing card and sealed in plastic — clean, protected, and presentable as a gift the moment it arrives.
