From the moment you step into our shop, you will experience the smells,
sounds, and sights that were present in turn of the century.  From our tools
and machines, to the metals we use, you will be able to take a look back in
history, to a time when craftsmanship was an honored way of life.

Throughout our company, we practice the best traditions of our craft.  Our
mastery of techniques yields pieces that will outlast us, and become the
heirlooms of tomorrow.  We believe that the products that we make for you
will be passed from you to your children, and on.

Our clients ask us to create the most challenging pieces.  We execute our
designs with a practiced sense of scale, balance, and proportion.  We
create pieces that pay respect to the principals of function.  Many times a
client will contact us seeking a single piece and then commission us to make
multiple objects for their home.  We provide our clients with professionalism
from the drawing to the delivery of the finished piece.

Over the years Terry Tynan has produced many custom pieces.  Fixtures &
silverware have been produced for various interior designers’ private

1930s great depression.  Twenty-four table lamps were produced for
various scenes within the movie.  The movie also stars Christian Bale &
