Today is all about ironmongery!

First thing this morning I popped down to Castell Coch to pick up a sample, wrought iron shutter nail, as a small batch are needed to be made for the current restoration work that is underway.

You can see in the image, all the layers of wrought iron de-laminating as it has corroded over the years.

Then this afternoon I am working on some hooks for the amazing felted animals, makes. She will be selling her work this weekend at the forest markets spring fair in Ross-on-Wye https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1KTB4fC1yY/

Fitted this garden tool gate near Abergavenny today- a minimalist, bold design to contrast and compliment the beautiful surrounding garden. I love how the height of the gate is perfectly framed by the leaves on the tree. We have combined a traditional estate gate style with cut out tool silhouettes to meet our client's design brief.
