Company

For over twenty five years, David Howell & Company has been designing and manufacturing products for museum stores and other fine retailers. We make objects that are decorative- objects that can enrich lives and transform places. When we do this, we try to use three basic principals – integrity, style and value.

Integrity is in our manufacturing. We want products to last. For example, our frames have plywood easels so that they won’t warp over time. Integrity is making sure that our suppliers meet environmental laws. It is keeping waste at a minimum. We want the future to look back at what we have made and see an honorable company.

Style is in our design. A good part of our design work is adapting historical motifs to modern products. It is a delight to talk to the original designer through the medium of his or her line. The style is taking that line and honoring it so that it talks in a new and complete way.

Value means giving the buyer more than they expected. It is boxing our Museum Jewelry so that it is ready to give. It is display racks that help sell. It is adding a story card to every piece.

Best of all we do this in America and we like what we do.
