Made with Care in Vermont
Danforth Pewter was established in 1975 by Fred and Judi Danforth. The couple traveled to Nova Scotia to apprentice with pewter artisans, and then returned to Woodstock, VT, where they opened a workshop in an old dairy barn. From the start, both Fred and Judi designed and made their own creations.
Eventually, combining Judi’s talent for carving models for jewelry and ornaments and Fred’s love of spinning holloware, they grew into their respective specialties. The business quickly became known for its one-of-a-kind oil lamps, jewelry, tumblers, picture frames, candlesticks, and other timeless heirlooms.
Today, a talented team of artisans carries on the traditions of working with pewter, both casting and spinning, to create contemporary and traditional designs that are part of many beloved traditions and occasions.
Every item is made by many hands in our workshop in Middlebury, Vermont. Danforth's reputation reflects the care and attention that goes into each and every piece.
