Who we are

Founded in 2019, we are a team of experienced blacksmiths with backgrounds in both decorative and industrial smithing, as well as graphic design, product design, art, and engineering. This diverse mix of skills allows us to approach metalwork from both a creative and technical perspective, combining artistic flair with structural integrity.

At the core of our work is a simple philosophy: we like solving problems and making things. While we value traditional blacksmithing methods, we aim to push the boundaries of the craft. By integrating modern techniques into our work, we approach projects from a fresh perspective, expanding what’s possible with forged metal.

Our forge is based in Portland Works, a historic 19th-century cutlery works in Sheffield and the birthplace of stainless-steel cutlery. We started out by borrowing space from a neighbouring blacksmith, experimenting one day a week while holding down other jobs. When a unit next door became available, we seized the opportunity. Portland Works is a vibrant community of talented makers, and being part of that creative environment continues to inspire our work.

Our ability to combine traditional forging techniques with modern design and manufacturing sets us apart. We manage every stage of production — from initial design to manufacturing and installation — ensuring that each piece meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
