HISTORIC METALWORK CONTRACTORS

Connoisseurs around the world are driving a renewed demand for luxurious custom metalwork. Lyrical in design, handcrafted railings, balustrades and gates serve as the jewelry of a house, belying their intrinsic strength and ultimate functionality. At Gold Coast Metal Works' atelier, highly skilled blacksmiths rely on time-honored techniques to forge hot metal - most commonly steel, but also bronze and wrought iron - and use anvils, hammers and chisels to create meticulous flowers and leaves, sinuous curves and decorative rosettes. Each finished piece is a unique and original work and will look beautiful for centuries. At Gold Coast Metal Works, a team of expertly trained artisans works on each commission. From engineers and draftsmen, to blacksmiths and finishers. With headquarters on the North Shore of New York's Long Island, the company easily works anywhere in the world.

Steven Handelman Studios, Inc.'s wrought iron products are hand made by skilled craftsmen, one at a time. We do not use prefabricated parts or assembly line techniques. We take care in the detail of our products. We also customize each product through the extensive choices we offer, including: finish, glass, size, and mounting configuration. These production techniques and varied choices are unusual for the 21st century. We take great care in the preparation and finish of our wrought iron products and light fixtures. All welds are ground smooth, cracks are filled and slag removed. We use very strong paint as a base coat and hand apply each premium finish to achieve an authentic aged and elegant look. Any brass parts we use are sandblasted before the paint is applied to ensure a good paint bond. Because we are direct sellers, and do not wholesale our products, we can give our customers the advantage of direct factory pricing. Our goal is to provide exceptional value at a fair price for our unique hand made products.
