Tin Lanterns are Back in Style

Tin Lanterns










Tin lanterns are back in style. The Backwoods Tin Shop can't keep up with demand. There is a six week backlog for their orders.

They have been making hand made items from tin, copper and stainless steel since 1994.

They make their products with a few small forming machines that were typically used in the 18th century. Their products are reproductions of tin lanterns from the Early American Colonial Period.

"The individual pieces are formed and then hand soldered together making each finished piece unique. No two are exactly the same."

Check out the Backwoods Tin Shop for some very cool tin lanterns for your cottage or log cabin.
