WENDELL AUGUST FORGE
is known as America’s oldest and largest forge, specializing in hand-wrought ornamental metalware and elegant giftware founded in 1923 by coal miner Wendell McMinn August. Each piece created by their expert craftsmen uses an eight-step process that has roots in ancient metalworking techniques. The marks of both the artist and the craftsman can be found on each piece; the die-engravers mark is ‘hidden’ in the design, and the craftsman’s mark can be found on the back of every piece.
