Wildlife and marine artist Stephen Barlow began with a vision unique among the decorative arts: he wanted to capture the lure of nature and lore of the sea on scrimshaw. To convey both the vast contour of a mountain prairie and the precise texture of an eagle’s wing … within designs measuring inches.

His challenge was never to shrink something large into miniature, but to re-create it from a whole new perspective. To create art of the highest quality you could hold in your hand, put in your pocket or hang on a tree. Art that would enlarge life on an intimate scale.

Over the decades, this vision grew into Barlow Designs, a dynamic family business that creates museum-quality engravings ranging from sporting to botanical, rugged to delicate and nautical to nostalgic. And the engravings themselves have been painstakingly adapted to objects as diverse as pocketknives, ornaments, keychains, moneyclips and jewelry.

Today, Steve Barlow oversees a team of talented artisans who faithfully handpaint these designs onto the finest materials. Wholly based in New England, Barlow Designs has proudly offered its distinctive form of American art through the finest stores all over the country.

And now you are only a click away from discovering it for yourself. At BarlowGifts, we are committed to product quality, exceptional service and customer satisfaction. Our many satisfied customers appreciate the rare beauty of a Barlow Design.
