March 31, 2012 Ten months ago Artisan Design discontinued it’s wholesale department and has since focused on retailing only via phone-in and internet orders.  To a great extent this move resulted from vandalism to our manufacturing facility’s roof which quickly rendered the building virtually unusable. Laura and I now both have full time careers in retailing.

We have discontinued magazine advertising and moved the major portion of our manufacturing into our home.  Artisan Design, Inc. is a much smaller company; committed to succeed under less than ideal circumstances.  Keeping up with orders in a timely fashion remains a challenge.  Nevertheless we plans to maintain Artisan Design even into our “retirement age years”. 

You may wait four to six weeks for your order to arrive; we know that is “less than ideal”.  Just remember that we manufacture of these products in our home - one at a time. “The old-fashioned way” may be obsolete as compared to the “Walmart” way, but “old fashioned is who and what we are; when we are gone few will be left.

The modern business environment is not ideal for us; the world has changed.  Our company is a “throwback” by most reckoning. Most companies like ours are long gone.  I am proud to be a “throwback”. With each piece I make I think in terms of how important it is for everything to work properly as intended so that the owner will enjoy it for years and years to come.

What’s in a name?

Israel adopted the Gazelle as it’s symbol when it was founded in 1948 because it represents the struggle to survive and the will to prosper in an unforgiving  world.

That is also a fair assessment of our “Gazelle”.

An “Artisan” is a person gifted in industrial arts.

 “Ergo” - Ergonomics: Science of the physical relationship between humans and machine. 

“Elan” Youthful verve and exuberance

“Lokscroll” A scroll bar system with internal locking mechanism.

When do body aches, debilitating pain and eyestrain of due to repetitive tasks become unacceptable?  Is it when one needs surgical remedy?

The U. S. Government created OSHA - the Occupational Health and Safety Administration - to establish standards for safety and health in the workplace. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome has ruined many a career; it is but one of hundreds of physiological health hazards.

Artisan Design has always been about the role comfort plays in making needlework both productive and enjoyable. It’s about proficiency as well as posture and motion. 

Our needlework stands allow you to relax comfortably without twisting, leaning, bending, or stretching while stitching.   Fabric or frame weight and position is held by mechanical means, not your hand, arm and shoulder. 

Lokscroll provides quick, secure attachment without the need for sewing your workpiece in place.

Our product are designed to help you gain proficiency, avoid stress, and enjoy an altogether better stitching experience.
