Puddled Wrought Iron

$1+
5.0(12 reviews)

Like the charcoal iron of early man, puddled wrought iron was the steel of the industrial revolution. A wood grain appearance results in the refining process where silica is captured intermittently in the iron. Not manufactured currently, items forged from puddled wrought iron provide an added texture and appeal over mild steel. Handle detail shows a material twist that adds an extra element to the flow and shape. Bolt heads and hook are 150 year old forgings showing grain (in the curve of the hook) and the forge weld from wrapping material around round stock to make the bolt head. If you look closely you can see the weld in the corner.

I was absolutely blown away with the finished product I received from Hellgate Forge! Darin Wicks was quick to respond to my custom fireplace poker request, easy to communicate with and I'm thrilled with his craftsmanship! I'm so excited to surprise my husband with this awesome poker for Christmas!

My experience with Darin of Hellgate Forge was exceptionally professional. He was very accommodating to my request and did not mind adjusting the fine details for a price more than fair. I strongly recommend him for any similar projects requiring a skilled blacksmith.

Hellgate Forge made some beautiful square pulls for a two custom cabinets I had designed for a client. The pulls will just put this cabinet above my expectations. They look fabulous and Darin at Hellgate was very helpful, professional and worked very hard to make everything the way I wanted. I couldn't think of a better process. Thanks Darin!!
