Custom Photo Slates for Youngstown, Ohio
A neighbor, up the road in the same state.
Handcrafted one at a time in Coshocton, Ohio — and shipped to Youngstown, Ohio.
Our own state, and our kind of people
We are an Ohio shop, and Youngstown is Ohio. That matters more than a directory listing would. This is a city built by people who worked for a living, in the mills and the trades and the shops, and who passed down the habit of showing up and doing the job right. The same instinct is in how we make these pieces: by hand, one at a time, no shortcuts, in Coshocton.
Each keepsake is a real slab of natural slate, printed with your photograph and finished by hand. The chiseled edge stays raw because that is what the stone actually looks like. Nothing about it is trying to look expensive. It just is solid, the way a Youngstown family tends to be.
Handmade in Coshocton — a couple hours up the road
There is no Albritton's Art™ storefront in Youngstown, and we will not pretend otherwise — but we are in your state, which means we know the drive and we know the people. Your keepsake ships from Coshocton to your address: Youngstown, Boardman, Austintown, Canfield, Poland, Struthers, Campbell, Warren, Niles, and the rest of the Mahoning Valley.
Keepsakes that are especially meaningful in this valley are family pieces, mostly. The reunion photograph with everybody's name written on the back in someone's handwriting. A wedding portrait for the parents. Mill and union family heritage — a grandfather's shift photograph, a union card, a picture of the crew that worked together for thirty years. Veterans and first responders are honored here in real numbers too, and memorials matter for the people whose names still come up at every single dinner.
Handcrafted in Coshocton, Ohio · shipped to Youngstown, Ohio. Every slate is made by hand, one at a time, in a single workshop — there is no second location and no storefront in Youngstown.

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.
