This understated but elegant
steel balcony railing
was made using traditional
blacksmithing techniques.
The curvilinear "stems" were
hammered into long graceful
tapers with stylised
leaves hand
forged onto their ends.
The railings were burnished and
waxed to highlight the tones and
surface texture of the forged steel.
Detailed joinery is always a
consideration for Verdigris. The central uprights pass through
hot punched holes and
ballnuts are used to connect the panels to the support posts. The post's fixings are very visible, so the
fixing plates become design features.
