Restoring the gates to Hampton Court Palace

As a maker, I like to create things that people want to keep and pass down; things that are unique and long-lasting, rather than throwaway. Since graduating from the Artist Blacksmithing degree I’ve been employed by George James and Sons, a blacksmithing company that has been open since 1841. Amongst other things, we do a lot of conservation work. Most recently we restored one of the gates at Hampton Court Palace
