I don\'t believe that a complete and accurate history of the Copper Shop has been written yet. In an attempt to compile a chronology based on the latest scholarship, I\'ve combed through the 3 McConnell Roycroft Art Metal books, Via and Searle\'s Head, Heart and Hand, and Dr. Michael

Clark\'s essay Arthur H. Cole and the Avon Coppersmith in Style 1900. Here\'s what I came up with:

1899: Original blacksmith shop is built and production of wrought iron fixtures, andirons, and hinges begins.
1902: The Copper Shop is built and production of copper fixtures, hinges, etc. begins.
1904: Dard Hunter arrives at Roycroft.
1906: The first commercial Roycroft copper items (simple letter openers, pin trays, etc) are produced for sale.
1906: Karl Kipp begins work at Roycroft in the Bindery.
1909: Walter U. Jennings moves from the Bindery to the Copper Shop.
1910: Former banker Karl Kipp joins the Copper Shop.
1910: Kipp and Hunter collaborate on some Roycroft copper designs -- \"early\" Vienna Secession-influenced style emerges (geometrics, cutouts, silver overlays).
1910: Dard Hunter leaves Roycroft to pursue paper making career.
1911: Kipp begins his own copper business while still employed at Roycroft.
1911: Kipp\'s wares are first advertised in The Fra.
1911-12: Italian polychrome line is introduced by Jennings (caramel colored copper with green paint highlights).
1912: Roycroft receives huge commission for copper items for the Grove Park Inn.
1912: Kipp leaves Roycroft to found the Tookay shop.
1912: Jennings leaves Roycroft to join Tookay Shop.
1912: Victor Toothaker is working in the Copper Shop (decorative rivet style emerges -- he may have designed the American Beauty Vase).
1913: West Wing is added to the Copper Shop.
1914: Art Cole is employed at age 16 at the Tookay Shop.
1915: Elbert Hubbard dies on the Lusitania, and his son Bert takes over the Roycroft Shops.
1915: Kipp and Jennings rejoin the Copper Shop (along with Art Cole).
1916: The North Wing is added to the Copper Shop.
1916: Jennings makes Roycroft-like items at home and signs with his own mark.
1918: Art Cole joins the Marines and leaves the Copper Shop.
1920: Roycroft begins using Steuben glass in lampshades and vase inserts.
1921: Kipp, Jennings, and Cole confirmed all employed at the Copper Shop.
1921: Jennings still making Roycroft-like items at home and signing with another mark.
1921-1928: The \"golden age\" of Roycroft copper production.
1928: Bert Hubbard lays off Copper shop workers.
1929: Jennings moves to the Bindery; Cole stays in the Copper Shop.
1929: Kipp and Cole resign from the Copper Shop.1929: Stock market crashes.
1930-: Small crew including Leon Varley continues production.
1930-: Quality and production decrease dramatically.
1930-31: Art Cole opens the Avon Coppersmith.
1930-: Jennings produces copper and sterling silver items from his home, some of which are sold through the Avon Coppersmith shop.
1938: Bankrupt Roycroft Shops close down.
1954: Karl Kipp dies.

There are gaps in the above chronology, and there are several inconsistencies between sources. I would be inclined to accept the dates listed in Clark\'s article over those in the McConnell books where they disagree. Also, I believe that Clark has refined some of the dates listed in Head Heart and Hand.

We are Trading Assistants - We call sell items for you!

is all we do for a living, husband and wife (Norb & Marie) working together, while we home school our kids on our farmette in Rural Delmarva. We have worked very hard to build our little business and it is very important to us. We try and do business the old fashioned way and have a rather simple outlook.

Treat all of your customers as if they are family.

Be courteous, answer e-mails, be fair in all your dealings and try and make friends of each and every customer.

However, with \'s new star rating and the rate increases in the U.S. Postal rates we needed to define and explain our methods of business.

ONE - Who We Deal With

We sell and ship world wide to anywhere, so please email us for a quote to wherever you happen to be.

TWO - Shipping Charges

We charge shipping based on the USPS system, we will sometimes ship via courier if we can get it to you within the same time frame or faster. We add a reasonable cost for materials and handling. Our materials cost is based on exactly what it has cost us to wrap similar sized items in the past. We realize that almost everything we sell is valuable to you and there is nothing worse than having something break in its final journey to your hands. We do our best to pack properly and use the correct materials to protect your win. If we are able to get the item to you for less than our quote we will refund the difference to you!

For oversized items or items that will take special attention to package, (building a crate, wrapping many small items individually, etc.), we ask you to email us for a quote on shipping prior to the sale ending. If you do not, we charge the same amount as if you did.

THREE - International Shipping

We charge shipping based on the USPS international system. The rates follow the same guidelines as number two above, though for international customers we add an additional $1.00 to cover the extra paperwork involved in international shipping. If an amount goes over $50 in value we will only ship it with Priority or Express Mail, regardless how small an item. That allows for us to have international tracking. There is no tracking available on First Class Mail.

FOUR - Insurance

\'s policies no longer allows us to charge the client for insurance. But... we still apply insurance to any item that goes over $27.00 in value. We reserve the right to use the insurance carrier of our choice. Sometimes that is Postal or the Carrier\'s Insurance and sometimes that is a private insurance company such as DSI or U-PIC/Shipsurance. If we use a private insurance company the package will not be marked insured, but it will be.

FIVE - Methods of Payment Accepted

We aoffere by \'s rules and try and stay abreast of their changes. We accept Paypal. Paypal also accepts the major credit cards, or we also take Credit Cards Directly over the phone, (MC, VISA, DISCOVER, AMERICAN EXPRESS, CARTE BLANCHE, DINERS CLUB, JCB) Bottom line, whatever method is most convenient for you.

SIX - Time Frame To Pay

We ask all sales to be paid for in the fastest possible time frame. (This is all we do for a living and we need the money to pay the bills and buy more unique and fun items to put up on )

SEVEN - Shipping Time Frame

We make every effort to ship in a timely manner. We are home schooling the boys, listing tons of items, and as like any of us are just plain swamped, so we have to schedule a special time to pack and ship. We ship on a first paid, first shipped basis. (We do not ship any item until it has been paid and the funds have cleared.) With the ebb and flow of payments we manage to get everything out of the door within one week. If there is a rush, we will make every effort to work with you in getting it out of the door faster. As you can see from our response, we do not disappoint. OF COURSE, items that need special attention, crating, etc adds to the time frame of those items.

EIGHT - Local Pickup

Sometimes it makes sense to come by and pickup your items. Sometimes an item is just too big for any other option. If you\'ve arranged local pickup with us, you must pickup the item within 30 days otherwise it will be subject to storage fees or relisting.

NINE - Communication

Please feel free to contact us at anytime, with any question or comment. Unless we are out of town we make an effort to answer all emails as quickly as possible.
