This had to have been the biggest and BEST surprise of our entire get-away! Joe, the Mountain Man…read morehimself, is super modest and soft spoken but wickedly talented artist. Predominantly designing jewelry from old U.S. solid sterling silver coins in his little unassuming shop. He was very accommodating to our requests and super interesting to talk with. We watched as he transformed what was a sterling silver coin into a beautiful piece of jewelry. Sounds strange but is really breathtaking. On some pieces he leaves the ridges of the original coin and when viewed from the back, you can still see what coin it was made from. Even his website [ http://www.vermontmountainman.com ] doesn't do his art justice. I swear if you order anything he hand makes it will surpass your expectations. I'm glad he has this site because you do get a little glance of quality work and can defiantly see the value in his ridiculously affordable pricing! After we left his shop we couldn't stop talking about his impressive work... so much so we returned to buy even more jewelry as holiday gifts [before we knew he had an online presence with his own website, Etsy, Facebook, etc ] and give him a coin we found for him! So fun and a place we will not soon forget. Definitely keep this place on your places to visit when you head through the area. I promise you won't be disappointed!
