Est. sometime in December

Gifts forged one at a time,
all year round.

We make a small number of heavy, well-made things and send them to people who were, on balance, more good than not. No list. No checking it twice.

This season's run

The Anvil Set

Four hand-finished pieces, cold-forged, shipped in a crate that outlives the contents.

€180

Long Night Candles

Twelve hours of burn each. Smells faintly of pine and slightly of regret.

€34

The Brass Horn

Audible across a valley. Please consider your neighbours before purchase.

€95

Wool, Heavyweight

A pair of socks with structural integrity. Sized generously, deliberately.

€26

The workshop

Everything ships from one room with two benches and a stove that works when it feels like it. Lead time is four weeks, longer in December, and we will tell you honestly which one you are looking at.

If a piece arrives wrong, send it back. We will fix it or make another. That has been the arrangement since the beginning.

β€œArrived late, arrived perfect. I have stopped asking for anything else.”
β€” a customer, somewhere cold

Letters

We write a few times a year: what is on the bench, what sold out, what we got wrong. If a subscription popup has not found you yet, it is probably being blocked β€” which, on this particular page, is the entire point.
