Traditionally, door stops present a unique opportunity to create something both sculptural and useful. This interesting design adds functional beauty to what is essentially just a weight to keep doors from slamming shut. Made from incredibly strong and durable cast iron or bronze, the 10 lbs. piece is able to maintain a simple elegance with its slender, ring shaped handle and unique channel shaped base. Although considered sculpturally as a stand alone piece, the design is only fully realized "in use" as it is meant to celebrate the anchor point at the edge of a door where it meets the floor.

Blackcreek Mercantile & Trading Co.
After years working in the furniture and interiors industry Joshua Vogel created Blackcreek Mercantile & Trading Co. as a way to explore small scale product design and manufacturing, and to reconnect himself with the practice and idea of handmade goods.
All of BCM&TCo.'s products are made by people right here in our Kingston, New York studio. . . lovingly, and with care. We strive daily to get closer in understanding to the elements of our craft, not further removed. We seek to connect good ideas with great materials through simple processes that, in turn, connect our customers directly to the essence of the work.
We believe that through an open sharing of skills and encouraging our employees to both learn and create, we can grow together through the pursuit of excellence. The goal of our work is to create enduring, beautiful, and functional objects that you will love to use as much as we love to make . . . from our hands to yours.
