Christmas Cheer #10: Wendell August Poinsettia Chip and Dip Set ( R+G) - 12/6

This post is a part of Christmas Cheer, a Holiday Gift Event, that will run on my blog from Nov 1-30.

I love to stumble upon companies that were founded way back in 1920's and still going strong. It says a lot about their product "quality" and customer service that has brought them this far. Wendell August is one such company with the heritage that has been passed along to what they proudly own today. 

Wendell August produces hand-wrought ornamental metal ware and elegant gift ware in aluminum and other metals since 1923. They are finely crafted stunning pieces are hand made in USA.

The heritage art of Wendell August Forge is preserved by the company’s artisans and craftsmen, who use the original eight-step process to produce every heirloom piece in aluminum, bronze, pewter, sterling silver, and other metals.This process includes Die Engraving by a master engraver, Material Selection and Cutting, Repousse (Hammering), Surface Anvilling, Edging, Carbon Coloring, a three step polishing process, and Forming. Company artisans create new motifs and designs, while some motifs – like the ever-popular Dogwood – have endured for decades. 

I was given the opportunity to review this Poinsettia Chip and Dip Set.


 And when I received the set, it looked just as beautiful as it looked in the picture. I really admired the carving and the intricate work that simply transformed aluminum into a beautiful piece of gift ware. I can't wait to show it off by serving some home baked goodies in it! The combination of aluminum color is red is very stylish yet the handwork on the tray gives it a classic look. I will be very careful with the bowl so that the pair will remain as beautiful as they are, happily ever-after!


 Wendell August products are all set to please your loved ones this Christmas as you can get your items personalized. Tell them you love them with a sweet message on a beautiful piece! They have a strong online presence and items can be ordered through their website. The Poinsettia Chip and Dip Set sells for $58.

This winter theme flowervase is sure to brighten up any home and add a dash of vibrancy. 



This keepsake photo albums are lavishly wrapped in black velvet and adorned with a generously sized handcrafted aluminum cover. Each holds up to fifty 3" x 5" or 4" x 6" photos in the included pages. Makes a terrific baby shower gift!


 As simple as a bookmark but rich in design and craftsmanship, this Inscriptions Bookmark is sure to be treasured between every page of the book. " The book was great but I couldn't take my eyes off the bookmark!" (chuckle).
 This beautiful cross was love at first sight for me! I would surely buy this for myself. Here's what August Wendell has to say about this cross "The simple cross of Calvary has been the subject of artistic inspiration for decades. Our artisans have created this Dogwood cross in honor of the sacrifice He made for us."



 At Wendell August, you can find gifts for all occasions - Wedding, Baby gifts, Christmas, Anniversary, Baptism, Confirmation, Achievement, Retirement and much more!
