This handsome pair will enhance any shelf, in the study, kitchen, bedroom or office and are straight out of the Mid-Century Modern era.
About Virginia Metalcrafters:
The original Virginia Metalcrafters company had a long history which began in 1890 when a gentleman named William Loth started the Waynesboro Stove Company. In the mid-1900’s the company began producing some of the finest brasswork in the world. Producing historic reproduction items for The Smithsonian, Mount Vernon, Historical Charleston, Old Sturbridge Village, Colonial Williamsburg and Historical Newport they became well known around the world for the fine quality of the items which they produced. Unfortunately, years later the company had to shut it’s doors, leaving behind a long tradition of rich history.
