Handles for a fire screen project. We were inspired by pine cones we found near the clients home.

New grille project in the works. This time a security screen door. These simple twisted bars were forgewelded together in bunches, then the bunches were forge welded end to end. This one was actually much more challenging than I anticipated. Anyone got tips for large lap welds?

New Product Alert!
We prototyped some handcrafted bench scrapers this holiday season. Quite pleased with how they came out. American hardwoods and 1095. They’re sharper, sturdier, and more ergonomic than those commercially available. We took these to our trunk show last week and sold out! If you’re interested in pre-order, we're going to do a run of about 20. $185 + shipping. Shoot us a message.

Just over a week left to apply for a scholarship for a summer workshop at Penland School of Crafts. Amy and Gabriel will be teaching a class in the iron studio during session 7, August 11-16th, 2024.
“A Love Letter to Grilles” will explore this versatile format that blends pattern, form, and function as a potent vehicle for expression.

Often in our design process we don’t try to innovate, in fact we think it’s kind of silly and the height of hubris to think we can improve upon the masters of design and craft that came before us. Instead our approach is to become scholars of historic works and attempt to assimilate their successes into an archetypal form that is immediately recognizable, beautiful, and flawlessly executed. From our first menorah to our latest, we feel this design exemplifies our approach of honoring our culture and the history of our craft.

Completed fire screen project. Two 60” wide curved fire screens. Forged bronze and steel. Stationary side panels with double doors. We previously made the 42” wide fire basket in the fireplace. A really lovely project for an amazing outdoor space.
