- Forged · Welded · Finished
Every piece we make is custom, built from scratch — and finished to look like it has stood for a hundred years.
For more than thirty years, founder Glenn Simmons has forged, welded and restored iron across South Florida. We pair a deep bench of traditional and modern tools with a signature for “Old World” patina and faux finishes — so new work can wear a true age, and old work can live another generation.
