The early frontier was celebrated in poems and carvings as the frontier moved westward there were stories about Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, and other explorers. The battle of the Alamo in Texas brought forth a surge of stories. In 1849 Emerson Bennett's 'The Prairie Flower' made a hero of Kit Carson, mountain man and explorer. This eventually lead to the creation of stone and bronze artifacts that adorn most houses today. These artificats keep alive the days of the Ole West.

Arkahdia Arts Studio, a European immigrant now living in New York started a studio dedicated to casting these pieces of Art. By focusing the business on two goals;(1) to save pieces which have been produced in another medium in bygone times, and (2) to bring new artist's work to the public, the product lines have prospered, delighted and excited.
