Za'El Pendragon

Za'El is another jack of all trades that has somehow managed to master a few. Much of the chainmaille you will find on this site will be by his hand. You may also find wrapped crystals or freshly prospected rocks, gems, and fossils here by his doing as well. There is not much he can not create if given a chance, and does craft in leather, wood, and glass media also. All but the last two web incarnation were purely his design, though he now favors other creations over web-design and has passed that torch to another. (Indiana)

Kay Raynewolfe

Kay is a multifaceted artist who creates a wide array of items. Items you may see here include herbal soaps, engraved glass, tree pendants, some chainmaille, and leather goods. She has been crafting all of these items for several years, and is confident you will enjoy the quality, concentration, and hard work that goes into each and every item. Having shared a similar dream with Za'El, and being a webmaster as well, has helped both to achieve a masterpiece in progress! (Indiana)

Midnight Mousie

Mouse is our go-to person for anything chainmaille that is intricate, colorful, or just plain cool. Often creating works of art we lovingly call 'elfmaille' due to her perfected use of small/tiny rings. She can work easily with aluminum, copper, brass, silver, and even gold. In addition to her chainmaille mastery, she is also an accomplished artist with scallemaile and many works of leather from purses and corsets to armor! (Missouri)

Dustin 'Spinx' Kalb

Spinx has been a silent traveler with us at local shows and on the road for the past couple years. While he generally merchants his own items we simply must include him in our mentioning. He is another of us that can craft anything he sees out of pretty much any material if he can comprehend the idea and what is desired. His in stock items include many Native American and Rendezvous inspired items. He creates walking sticks/staves, dreamcatchers, wire art (dragons, scorpions, etc), bone handled knives, animal hide pouches, military style survival bracelets, chainmaille, leather bags, carved antler morels, and so much more! All high quality items and very easy person to get along with. (Indiana)

Alchemy of England/Alchemy Gothic

We now carry handcrafted items from Alchemy of England, Inc. The majority of their jewelry is hand cast and made in England from fine English pewter (this is so not the flimsy stuff we are used to here that bends and breaks) and in many cases include other high quality materials and finishes. 100% Britannia pewter. Hand made in England. Authentic Alchemy of England brand merchandise. We have also started to carry a few of their T-shirts and other gift/novelty items. ‘Alchemy Gothic’, ‘Alchemy England’, 'Alchemy UL13' and ‘A7 - Alchemy Licensed Designs’ are all brand names for Alchemy licensed products available around the world. There are now hundreds of terrific, Alchemy Gothic-style products of all descriptions, and all using Alchemy art, designs and concepts. These are the same great items, from the same wonderful artisans, that some of the big companies carry... We just do our best to offer them to you at lower prices! (England/UK)

Brynn McCullough

Brynn is a self-taught artist who has studied and practiced the Craft for about 20 years. All of her items are made by her, in her home, and not mass produced. I takes great care to only put positive energy into the items she creates. They are handmade with love and have never been used. Each item is a unique creation. As each one is individually hand crafted, there will never be another one that is exactly the same. In addition, all of the items she creates are cleansed and blessed before shipping. (Nebraska)

Chris Villand

Chris has been working with wood since 2003. Hes learned almost all he knows about wood from his father, a master woodcarver in the Norwegian Acanthus style. He can work with any wood he find, but prefers to use domestic wood- while there's lots of beautiful exotic wood in the world, he doesn't feel the need to have them shipped halfway around the world just to make a box. There are a lot of trees being cut down right around his hometown, because they're sick or in the way, and they get ground up into chips and thrown away... unless he gets there first, and has them milled into boards. He decorates the lids with many designs - usually done by hand with scroll-saw. Anything that looks good as a silhouette can be made into a box decoration. (Wisconsin)

Mark Leanza

Mark is the exclusive hand craftsman behind our Mystic Forest Pendants! Although the different woods used are very exotic, no rainforest, or jungle wood is ever used. All the wood is grown on tree farms in the USA. Inside the heart of the pendant is carved a chamber which holds 1/2 dram glass vial. Mark is also the owner of Makes Good Scents, the home of our Dragons Eye Incense. Each and every stick is hand dipped in only the best skin safe oils. This incense is so fresh that you can smell it the second you open the box. Only environmentally sensitive production methods are used and every product is made cruelty free. (California)

Robert Evans

Robert has been producing shirts for just over 10 years, and has been working hard for us to complete what should have been an impossible order of both solid and hand tie-dyed and custom screen printed t-shirts for the upcoming Ancestral Drum & Dance Festival!  He and his wife both served in the military with his wife just recently out of the service. The name of his business is insanitees. He is always looking to give anyone anywhere a good deal. (Texas)
