Hot Metal Works
I came to the world of the Artistic Blacksmith relatively late in my working life. I had previously worked in various fields, including: microfilm, model making and I.T. However, whilst working in these roles, I always felt that there had to be more for me - something I really enjoyed and could excel at.

I knew from my love of cars that I enjoyed working with metal. I also really admired the craftsmen that produce exquisite car bodies from flat sheets of metal with only a few tools. But, I didn't want to turn my hobby into my job. Thankfully, I somehow, and I'm still not sure how, found blacksmithing - specifically, a three day course for beginners.

An artistic commission is a great opportunity to craft a one-off piece designed specifically for you. Artistic commissions encapsulate everything from a gate to a sculpture but give you the freedom to make each piece your own. Together, we develop the design based on your taste, requirements and budget, ensuring you are happy.
A residential commission typically looks at those everyday items you find around the home. Similarly to artistic commissions, residential commissions are handcrafted in the forge to meet your requirements. All residential commissions are made according to your personal taste and can be designed to suit you, giving them a personal touch and ultimately making them a great addition to your home.
Join us in our historic and atmospheric forge. It dates back to 1838 and is the oldest, continuously used forge in London. So, step back in time and craft steel with just fire, an anvil and your supreme efforts - just like the London Blacksmiths that came before. We are based in the London Museum of Water & Steam in Brentford.

Awesome set of guys here. Brought a child gate that was broken and they put some good ol American welding on it! Now it should last a lifetime! Would 100% recommend. Plus they have an awesome dog and scenery.
