Ironwork Hot From the I.H.E.A. Forge

Ed and Bubba Team HammeringBefore you view our online sample catalog, we thought we'd answer a couple of questions first!

Q. Where do you get your cool stuff? India? Pakistan? Hong Kong?

A. Nope! We make it all ourselves from recycled and new steel - it's a local product because we have made it so.

Q. How fast can I get it?

A. We do not carry a lot of finished stock. We prefer to make individual pieces to order. Therefore, it might take a little longer than your usual supplier but we think it's worth the wait!

Q. Can I get a lot made of all the same pattern?

A. We happily make large lots of specific items with adequate advance notice. Because our work is made one piece at a time, there will always be some variation in the finished results from the products pictured in our online catalog, which makes them unique and therefore desirable to collectors.

Q. What about prices???

A. You might end up paying more than you usually would for a similar product, mass-produced overseas. However, from the I.H.E.A. you will get a product that didn't involve questionable labor practices or child exploitation. Anyone who purchases I.H.E.A. ironwork can rest assured that they have purchased a quality, useful and highly collectible product that they can use in everyday life and pass on to the next generation as a useful American made heirloom. Contact us for prices: you will be in for a happy surprise!

Q. I want one! I want one! How do I get one? Can I have my own design produced?

A. Would you like to commission a custom piece or request something you've seen in our online catalog for you or a loved one? Contact us for the details and an estimate. Remember, if you don't see it here, we can always make it for you from scratch with adequate sketches, descriptions, and diagrams. We LOVE a challenge!

Reeinactors, do you need something special that you just can't find? Talk to us!

All of our pieces are hand-forged from recycled steel
and made in the U.S.A.!
