Sea Island Forge

A forge, not a factory

It started in 2014, out of a small forge that took on metalwork, construction, furniture, and art too, and one kettle, the "OG," built for a back yard. It became the natural focal point it still is today, and it never really left. Every kettle since has been hand finished in the same forge on St Simons Island.
