j0434728Directory of Traditional American Crafts

The Directory of Traditional American Crafts is an honor bestowed on a handful of artisans by Early American Life who work in traditional media, styles, and crafts. In addition the Directory is also a buying guide. It presents to you a selection of the best historically informed handwork in America today. The Directory will help you select the best furniture, pottery, ironwork, decorative objects, and more for period-correct decorating, collecting, or movie-making.

Selection Process

An artist who has been selected for the Directory has had his or her work thoroughly evaluated by a panel of experts. Because Directory artists so accurately replicate the styles and techniques of historic work, they might be mistaken for antiques. To assure this high-quality work is appreciated for the true quality of its modern craftsmanship, the Directory requires all work to be hallmarked.
