Alfred H. Denninger, a blacksmith since 1974, and his wife
Beth have combined their interest in American history and their skills in wood
and metal crafts to create their unique company. Since 1988, the Denningers
have been decorating the finest buildings throughout the United States and six
continents around the world with their American Folk Art.
Many of the techniques which Al uses in his shop have
remained unchanged since the 18th century. His talent lies in his ability to
combine these primitive techniques with state-of-the-art technology. Beth and
Al keep an extensive library and photograph file of antique rooftop
embellishments and continually study architecture and design. The Denningers
work carefully to create the decoration which best reflects the client's
lifestyle, the personality of a home or business or the accurate restoration of
an historic building.
100% of our weather vanes, finials and components are
proudly Made in America.
Our interest is in the highest possible quality. We will not
sell any imported imitations.
