The carvings created by David are intricately worked of antique ivory, ebony wood and abalone pearl. Each of the 83 works (and counting!) is heavily engraved through the art form known as scrimshaw. David works daily in his on-site workshop where he is creating the "History of the sailing Ship". This unique art collection-museum forms an artistic and highly educational exhibit that culturally enriches all who view these extraordinary works of art. This is a fantastic place! I highly recommend!

Come and view the work of David Warther, a fifth generation carver of Swiss heritage, who is continuing his family's carving legacy in the center of Ohio's beautiful Amish country. The carvings created by David are intricately fashioned of antique ivory, ebony wood and abalone pearl. Each of the 83 works (and counting!) is heavily engraved through the art form known as scrimshaw. David works daily in his on-site workshop where he is creating the "History of the Ship" from 1st Dynasty Egypt, circa 3000 B.C., to the present day. This unique art collection-museum forms an artistic and highly educational exhibit that culturally enriches all who view these extraordinary works of art. The Gift Shop at David Warther Carvings has become a destination in itself with visitors stopping in regularly to see what Leona, our gift shop manager, has brought in as new seasonal gift ware, clothing and home decor. Visitors find Amish made brooms and furniture that live up to this area's reputation for quality merchandise at a reasonable price. Children's toys, games and puzzles are just some of the things your little ones will enjoy! Gifts for men are mixed throughout the store which has its emphasis on unique home decor not seen elsewhere.They now carry the famous Warther Cutlery, which began in 1902, when David's grandfather made his first paring knife.
