Meet the Artist
Thor Peterson
The artist and master silversmith behind our current designs has been designing in silver and manipulating metal into one-of-a-kind masterpieces since high school. He graduated college with a degree in welding technology, and opened his own shop shortly thereafter. After meeting his mentors Glen (“Gooch”) Goodwin and Larry Deniky, who inspired his love of traditional western crafts, he quickly learned that functional art was where his heart was - he hasn't looked back since.
Thor is as much a silversmith artist as he is a rancher and family man. Truly living the dream in rural southern Arizona, where he calls home. All his designs are inspired by life in the desert, the beauty of the ranch, and spending time with his wife and 4 sons.
"There isn't anything else that I could imagine doing with my life. When I sit down to work on my creations, it just feels right. Designing art that inspires happiness in others bring me joy." - Thor Peterson
