Hand Craft And The
Ferrocraft Grilles
Foundrymen cast our grilles, but it is honest craftsmen who make them Ferrocraft.
These craftsmen, with their odd shaped hammers and numerous gravers tools, painstakingly go over the casting, slowly changing them into Ferrocraft Grilles.
There is no other way to sharpen the detail and enrich the motifs. Therefore, let us say once again, that cast grilles are made by foundrymen, and our Ferrocraft Grilles by craftsmen.
“Close up” of standard design Ferrocraft Grille Number 47, showing the fine relief and sharpness of detail after leaving the craftsman’s hand.
Not hours, but frequently days and days are spent in such hand-tooling.
