Rusted Plant Supports
Our rusted plant supports are inspired by living willow designs, hand-forged to create sculptural pieces that evolve with the seasons. Ideal for roses, sweet peas, or clematis, these supports develop a natural patina over time. Each piece is crafted in our studio, combining functionality with artistic detail to enhance any garden space.
Custom Arbours
Designed in an English romantic style, our arbours feature organic shapes and rustic finishes that blend seamlessly with natural surroundings. The Flower House model includes cedar shingle roofing for a charming retreat. All structures are hand-forged, ensuring unique character and durability while maintaining a harmonious garden aesthetic.
Handcrafted Furniture
Elegant oak furniture combined with hand-forged metalwork creates timeless garden seating and tables. The Bishop Chairs and Oak Table set exemplifies our commitment to rustic charm and durability. Each item is designed to withstand outdoor conditions while adding artistic flair to exterior spaces.
Bespoke Gates
Our bespoke gates are tailored to individual client specifications, featuring the signature Rusted Flower detail. Crafted from durable materials, these gates combine security with artistic design. Each piece is made to order, ensuring perfect integration with existing garden aesthetics and client requirements.
Decorative Fire Pits
Hand-forged fire pits add both functionality and visual interest to outdoor spaces. Available in two sizes, these durable steel features develop a natural rusted finish over time.

Questions
What materials are used in your furniture?
We use hand-forged steel with a natural rusted finish and sustainably sourced oak. These materials develop a unique patina over time while maintaining structural integrity.
Can I request custom designs?
Yes, we specialise in bespoke commissions. Clients receive initial sketch ideas to ensure the final piece perfectly matches their garden's character and requirements.
Do you deliver outside London?
We deliver across the UK. Northern Ireland, Highlands, and Islands may incur surcharges. Delivery typically takes up to 14 days from order confirmation.
How should I care for my rusted furniture?
Our pieces require minimal maintenance. The natural rust finish protects the metal, though occasional oiling of moving parts is recommended for gates and functional items.
Are your products weather-resistant?
Yes, all items are designed for outdoor use. The hand-forged steel develops a protective patina, while oak components are treated to withstand UK weather conditions.
What if my order arrives damaged?
Please notify us within 48 hours of delivery. We inspect all items before shipping and will arrange replacements for any manufacturing defects or transit damage.
