A number of commissions have now been completed using pure iron.  As soon as we have more to show you we will add them to this page.  All contributions are welcome.

 

Repousse Leaf The original wrought iron leaf on the left is part of a panel restored for the National Trust.  All damaged or missing leaves were replaced using 1mm pure iron sheet which was laser cut to provide the correct profile and then carefully hammered without heat to achieve the correct three-dimensional shape.  This is known as repousse work.

Phoenix Weather Vane Pure iron was used to produce this mediaeval looking weather vane by Michael E Roberts FWCB.  All the iron was hot worked.  The phoenix is now installed 45 feet up on the oldest dwelling in Worcestershire, a house dating from 1320.

Haley Hill, Halifax This gilded, pure iron screen provides a decorative solution to the security problems faced by a historically important redundant church near Halifax. The commission was carried out by Don Barker Ltd.
