| Peter Manship has been creating beautiful
One of A Kind Collection [Shop online]
sterling silver jewelry for over 30 years.
He has had large up scale stores and galleries and decided in his recent years |
 |
that he just wanted to make fun things, one of a kinds and pieces that he was inspired to make. So he scaled back and opened his studio situated on beautiful Lake Pauline, in Ludlow Vermont, surrounded by the Black River section of lakes Echo, Rescue, and Amherst. We are minutes from Okemo Ski Resort, and Killington Ski area. It is here he creates his handcrafted silver rings, earrings, pendants and bracelets for both women and men. 
It’s a funky place, yellow, purple and blue, with a porch and lots of great driftwood and rocks. It’s very peaceful and some would say inspiring. Corporate, not at all. We like talking to our customers, many who come in quite often and are considered friends. It really is a beautiful place to have to go to work to every day. Until recently it was just Peter, until I decided to move to Vermont and the beautiful Green Mountains, met Peter and well, the rest is history, and my name is Carol, nice to meet you. Together we decided to take our lives and business to a whole new level, hence the web site. Now the two of us get to create, together, though he is a master silversmith, I am not, at all. But he is teaching me more and more, and together we think of neat new things and create new pieces using semi precious and even precious stones and of course my favorite, pearls. Recently we have gone into production on a few of his most favorite and asked for items (the
Blanket Baby™ [Shop online] and the
Cradleboard Baby™ Series [Shop online]). Please understand that production does not mean we have a crew of hundreds working here, we do not. Production simply means that Peter creates the “master” piece and then sends it to our incredible sterling casting house, they make a mold for us and make the item in quantity. This is a recent development, but after having so many requests for the same items, and not having a crew of hundreds, this is the next best thing. You get one just like the master, and we get to take a break and create new things for you. We hope you enjoy the site, and take a real minute or two to browse and relax with us in the Okemo Valley.
These pictures of the moose and loon inspired Peter to make them part of the Northwoods Collection™ [Shop online]. We hope that they encourage you to relax and enjoy our website.

We travel to different gem and mineral shows to find new and exciting stones for the One of a Kind collection. Email is a must, please use it and we promise to acknowledge you within 2 business days. Calling is tough, again we are not a huge corporate type place, craftsmen remember. You may get the machine, again, sorry but we don’t have a huge staff, hence why email is so very much better. If you must call, and we are not here, we will have to go with the 2 business day rule again. Business days are Monday through Friday as we consider Saturday and Sunday our days to devote to our loyal walk in customers. You can always come see us if you are in the area, it’s a beautiful spot and we know you won’t be disappointed. We make our jewelry right there in that quaint little yellow shop and are very proud of it. Just click on the directions link and map quest will hook you up.
