Custom Photo Slates for Toledo, Ohio
An Ohio shop, making them for the lakefront.
Handcrafted one at a time in Coshocton, Ohio — and shipped to Toledo, Ohio.
A lake city where the family gathering is the whole point
Toledo is a lake city, and it has the habits of one. Families gather on the water in the summer and around the table the rest of the year. The reunion gets booked a year ahead. The holiday photograph gets retaken three times because somebody blinked. And when somebody in the family is being honored — a graduation, a retirement, a season worth remembering — the whole extended crew turns out for it.
We make keepsakes for those gatherings, and we make them here in Ohio. Every slate is handcrafted one piece at a time in Coshocton — real natural stone, printed with your photograph, an Ohio small business rather than a factory — with the raw chiseled edge left exactly as it broke. The matte surface reads clearly from across a room, and the piece stands on its own easel.
From Coshocton across the state to Lake Erie
Straight up, the same as everywhere: Albritton's Art™ is a single workshop in Coshocton, Ohio, and there is no Toledo location with our name on it. We build each keepsake in the state and ship it to your address, so a northwest Ohio order travels the shortest distance we can give it.
Keepsakes that are especially meaningful here are family and team pieces. The reunion photograph from the lake. Grandparents with all the grandchildren in one frame. Weddings printed for the couple and a double for the parents who hosted. Graduations from the area high schools and universities, along with the University pride that comes with them. Employee and team recognition — years of service, a retirement, a milestone season — and tributes for the veterans and first responders this city honors in real numbers. And memorials, made gently, for the ones the family still mentions at the table.
Handcrafted in Coshocton, Ohio · shipped to Toledo, Ohio. Every slate is made by hand, one at a time, in a single workshop — there is no second location and no storefront in Toledo.

Real finished pieces
What yours will look like
Every one of these is a real slate we made, photographed on its display stand. The stone is split from nature, so no two edges are ever the same.
How it works
Four simple steps, one lasting keepsake.
Send us your photo
Text or email the digital photo you want on slate — the original file from your camera or gallery, if you can find it. Higher resolution prints better, but send what you have and we will tell you honestly how it will look on the stone.
We prepare the design — you approve it first
We lay out the photo, and any names, dates, or words you would like with it. We show it to you before anything is made. Nothing is printed until you say it is right.
Printed on stone, hand-finished in Coshocton
Once you approve it, the image is printed onto natural slate and hand-finished in our Coshocton, Ohio workshop. Because the stone is split from nature, every chiseled edge is a little different — no two pieces are alike.
Shipped to your door
Your finished keepsake is boxed with its display stand and sent to your address, ready to set out the moment you open it. Nothing to frame, nothing to assemble.
