In today’s day and age, it is rare to find a family business that thrives on American-made quality. Founded in 1984, Vaillancourt Folk Art has become a household name to collectors and Christmas enthusiasts around the world because of their highly detailed, hand-painted, Chalkware figurines. From the largest private collection of vintage confectionary moulds dating as early as the mid-1800s, the contemporary chalkware style—first developed by Judi Vaillancourt—pays homage to the early Victorian decorative art form and is completed in a small studio in Central Massachusetts. In addition to their popular chalkware designs, Vaillancourt Folk Art has several other lines, including, mouth-blown Polish glass Christmas ornaments, and a full line of gifts and collections.
