The two artists behind The Tin Woodsman Pewter Company are Deborah and Jim Chapman. In 1981 Jim was a woodworker making furniture and lamps, and was back in school studying romance languages at the University of Oregon where he met Deborah, who was working on her master's degree in French Literature. A few years later close friends decided to shut down their pewter studio, and Deborah became interested in learning pewtersmithing as a hobby. Within three years they sold Jim's lamp business, and drawing from previous experiences with clay and wood, they developed their business into what it is today.

The Tin Woodsman offers a broad variety of home accessories handmade in pewter including measuring cups and spoons, coasters, and coffee canisters. The popular Celtic and Fish designs are everyone's favorites.
