These Solid Steel Bookends start their life as 50mm x 6mm thick approx 600mm long flat bar.
The bar is heated in the forge until cherry red hot and then carefully forged into the flowing state by hand, hammer, anvil – curl by curl.
All of my items are hand made using traditional techniques.
The handmade nature of blacksmithing results order in there being differences in the surface texture and finish between each and every piece.
This makes each one truly unique.
Hand-Forged by me in the Heart of the Derwent Valley World Heritage Site in the rural historic town of Belper, Derbyshire, UK.
Ideal for 11th Wedding Anniversary gift.
These are sold in pairs – The finished surfaces are seasoned with a hot coating of oil to provide that classic blackened patina.
These will last you a lifetime.
Standing 145mm high, depth of 50mm and 140mm wide – with a weight of 1.2kg each – that 2.4kgs for the pair.
