All Shopping in Missouri

What would you expect to find walking the streets of the oldest town in Missouri? Perhaps historic homes, charming shops, or a glimpse into colonial life. But a working pewter foundry?

The Hoopers spent years traveling the Renaissance Faire circuit, where discerning collectors and history enthusiasts quickly recognized the exceptional quality of their work. Unlike cheaper pewter products that may contain lead, ASL Pewter Read more…
