During
the course of my career, I've had the wonderful
good fortune
of meeting many of North America's
most talented, most gifted craftsmen.
Having encountered scores of accomplished
individuals whose devotion to their work is clearly
evident, while there have indeed been those who've
exhibited a standard of excellence equal to that of
James Hayes Bresnahan, none have surpassed the
level of pride, creativity, ingenuity or expertise
demonstrated in these most impressive pieces.
Born in Wisconsin, U.S.A. Mr. Bresnahan is a
member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners. By trade, he is a highly skilled
Journeyman Millwright and Piledriver whose
personal time is largely dedicated to his family,
work and creating "One of a Kind" Handcrafted
Peppermills and Candle Holders created with the
World's most beautiful domestic and exotic
tropical hardwoods.
While I have never seen pictures that brought justice
to
any 'Olde World' style craft, I can honestly say that
I
have never held better work in my hands and
it is with
great honor that Westridge
Candles now presents
these exquisite pieces.
