Ian Hart Iron Work

Hart, Ian

Ian Hart graduated college in 2017 with a degree in traditionally forged ironwork under the tutelage of Richard Guthrie, a Colonial Williamsburg veteran Journeyman who moved on to teach others the craft through the American College of the Building Arts. Rick instilled in him a value of creating accurate 18th century reproductions exclusively by hand, matching the construction methods, characteristics, underlying geometry and functionality of their historic counterparts. Rick has since passed, but Hart carries his lesson with him through every day: to make a profit when I can, to take a loss if I must, to sleep some nights, and others not, but always to do good work.
