Ramsey’s Workshop + Design Studio
Eclectic and hand-crafted Copper, Brass and Tin works of Art.
Welcome To Ramsey Pualwal Tinsmith Studio
We are a Copper, Brass & Tin workshop.
Welcome!
My name is Ramsey Paulwal and I’m so glad you found my online workshop. For those of you who don’t know to much about being a tinsmith, traditionally, a tinsmith is one who works with tinplate: the 19th century household material of choice for virtually anything functional and utilitarian, especially so in the kitchen because it is non-toxic and leaves no aftertaste.
In 1976, at the age of 19, I began working in the tin shop at Old Sturbridge Village, a living history museum in Massachusetts. This experience led me to a lifelong passion for this artform.
All the work begins from a flat sheet of metal. I hand cut the components of each and every piece and form them to the desired shape with hand and foot-powered machinery without the use of heat. This is called cold-forming. I then attach the components to one another using lead-free solder. Over time, I have applied this technique to copper and brass as well, stepping outside the parameters of Sturbridge.
Today my work includes elements of Early American, Traditional and Contemporary styles, as I strive for designs that are as pleasing to the eye as they are functional
We Design & Give New Life into Older Pieces
“I have a lot of respect for the history and what made me what I am. A lot of the pieces that I make today have an element of Americana in some of them.” – Ramsey
“I love creating and working with my hands. Just the creative process as a whole” – Ramsey
All of our works have been carefully thought through, made the with highest quality tin, copper or brass and have been made with love.
