It was here that Joseph Lodge and his wife settled and, in 1896 opened his first foundry.

Just three months later and a few blocks south, the company was reborn as Lodge Manufacturing Company.

Tervis -  Let’s take a little trip back in time. It’s 1946. Detroit. Engineers Frank Cotter and G. Howlett Davis hit on something big: they harness the natural insulating powers of air to create a permanently sealed, double-walled tumbler. Finally a way to keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. Not to mention, it is virtually indestructible. This outstanding innovation changed the drink ware industry forever. Talk about a game changer.

Vermont Rolling Pins - The rolling hills, Green Mountains, and Lake Champlain lure artisans of all kinds to live in Vermont. Inspiration for art abounds here. Although many artisans are transplants or “flatlanders” as Vermonters call them,Vermont Rolling Pins’ wood turner is a long time Vermonter. His family records date back to the late 1600’s; they were beckoned early on to this gorgeous state.
