Forged – Xanthous Gold Gilded
Forging iron and steel is one of the oldest known metal working processes. Soane’s exceptional blacksmith Mark creates some of Soane’s most distinctive pieces at his foundry on the edge of the Forest of Dean, transforming inert steel bars through hours of heating, hammering and cooling.
Once cooled, gold leaf alloyed with palladium is carefully applied by expert gilders to a brown undercoat and gently sanded, before being sealed with a layer of gesso. All our metal finishes are hand applied, unlacquered and living, and we expect these to age and patina over time. Please note that this includes our metal samples.
