The following choices and ideas should give you some idea of what you need to do to order your item(s). Why not take a few minutes to read through the following sections to become more familiar with all the options, then drop us a line so we can discuss your order.
Still not sure which options are right for you? Maybe we can help. Write or call, tell us the occasion you need the item for, and allow us to suggest the appropriate item(s). We would be happy to help.

Type ~ This is a good place to start. Think about what your favorite drink is, or at least what you think you will be drinking from these. The goblets, for example, would not hold very much beer. Most beer drinkers want a larger cup for this. Simple? Of course it is! You should also remember that the steins will allow for larger, and therefore, more impressive and detailed artwork if that’s what you want.

Shape/design ~ This comes next. Look over all the different shapes on the other pages, and decide which one appeals to you. Remember, if you like some parts of one and different parts of another...let us know. Custom work is always a possibility! If it’s for someone else, and you’re not sure which one they would like, we have found that the one that you like will probably be their favorite, too.
If they don’t like your choice, you can exchange it for a different style, no problem!
(except those items with custom artwork)

Woods ~ An important choice. I usually use the following for the goblets: Maple, Tiger Maple, Bird’s eye Maple, Red Maple, Black Walnut, Flame Birch, and Cherry.
For the steins I usually have only Cherry, or Tiger Maple. In the near future, I hope to provide the option of laminated woods for these as well.
(wood choices are subject to change without notice/ ask about availability)
 The only wood that may not look good with woodburned artwork is the Black Walnut, unless you add color to the design. The Cherry wood will darken as it gets older, eventually achieving a look of fine old furniture. All the other woods will stay the same color for a very long time to come.
If you don’t see a wood type that you are interested in, let me know.

I will not use any exotic woods in my work. Please don’t even ask. Think of it this way; this sort of tree grows in places that are full of insects that would love to eat it. And yet they don’t. Why? Most of these trees have developed toxins that harm the insects if they try! While this wood may be fine for use as a walking stick, or maybe a chess set, do you really want to drink from this? (exotics: bubinga, purpleheart,etc.)

Item Prices ~ I’ll bet you were looking for this info, right? Well, it all starts very simply.
