Each of Studebaker’s works is completely handmade using traditional tools and techniques; most of the forms you see are created solely with a hammer and anvil. The pieces are ‘finished like a tool’: minimally polished and left with a work patina to develop over time. All items are stamped with the Studebaker Maker’s Mark and their place of origin: Pittsburgh, PA.
