Welcome to my website

The recurring passions of my life have been playing with fire and the great outdoors. These influences are evident throughout my ironwork. The flowing potential of forged iron allows me to emulate the sinuous twisting forms of vines and leaves.

My inspiration not only comes from the natural world but also from my years spent demonstrating at shows with the most skilled craftsmen in the country; many of my designs and techniques are influenced by this exposure to traditional craftwork at its best.

This has resulted in a varied, often eclectic range of pieces. The Ironwood kitchenware range exemplifies this- with forms drawn from my own collection of artisan spoons from around the world, I have embraced that idea that even purely functional pieces should be as pleasing to the eye as the hand.

At times though I have come across work in other media that cannot be improved upon, or translated into iron. With this in mind I will be showcasing a selection of my fellow craftsman’s hand made excellence.
