Ahlers Designs unique collection of quality gifts and accessories are designed and crafted from cast pewter and hand painted with enamel. Most of the beloved designs will no longer be available after this season.

She is a gem.” ~ Owner, In Toone Communication.
For those that have an endless “to do” list (and who doesn’t?) and can barely see the turkey dinner at the end of this insanely mad dash to shop for everyone on your list, from Aunt Martha to Cousin George, I can offer you this. Take a deep breath and look to the Rhode Island Artisan Gail Ahlers, to have a perfect handcrafted gift that says you care with style and flair.
“My passion is making art, creating joy and empowering people,” said award winning artist Gail Ahlers, and with the gift of her hand cast pewter Motivational Angels, you would bring the spirit and joy of the season to someone special all year long.
