I gave\u00a0a lecture\u00a0and participated in a\u00a0workshop, “Period Make-Do’s and How to Reproduce\u00a0Them,” this past Monday at Don Carpentier’s Historic Eastfield Village<\/a> in East Nassau, NY. My friend Bibiana also participated in\u00a0the workshop and took these photos of my presentation and of our work. Instructors included Master\u00a0Tinsmith William McMillen, expert Blacksmith and Tinsmith Olof Jansson, and Master\u00a0of all trades Don Carpentier, who guided us through completing\u00a0handmade tin replacement lids for my Worcester teapot<\/a>\u00a0and Bibiana’s banded mocha ware mug.<\/p>\n

This was my second workshop on the art of repairing antiques with\u00a0antique\u00a0tools and employing\u00a0the same methods\u00a0as those of Early American\u00a0tradesmen. I am eager to continue my education in\u00a0the craft\u00a0of tinsmithing and learn more about\u00a0how my great-grandfather, a Philadelphia tinsmith, most likely created\u00a0a number of household items with inventive repairs of his own.<\/p>\n
