The design of this pair of driveway gates is a carefully balanced blend of straight lines and sweeping curves.
Its straight lines lend the gate an elegance and graceful quality, whilst the curves and botanical detailing draw the eye away from the more utilitarian nature of the gate.
Each of the calla lilies is individually hand forged and features deeply voluminous, full bodied and flowing compound curves.
David discusses his appreciation of calla lilies' complex and inviting curves, and his approach to forming them, on this
blog page.
The gate also features hand forged snowdrops that serve as garden lights. Low voltage lamp fittings are discreetly hidden inside the flower's inner petals.
