Lucille combines the wonderful age old techniques of the blacksmiths craft with contemporary design and a modern aesthetic. Much of the inspiration for my work comes from living by the sea all my life combined with the construction and joining methods that feature so strongly in this ancient craft. Typically I work with a range of clients including architects and interior designers but particularly the business is aimed at private individuals who appreciate craftsmanship and have an eye for detail.

Commissions have included interior and exterior ironwork such as door furniture, candlesticks, garden sculptures and a range of fire tools and fire baskets. With a strong design and problem solving background Little Duck Forge aims to produce unique solutions to individuals requirements.

Little Duck Forge work is bespoke and is made and fitted to the highest standard, innovative design and traditional craftsmanship are forged together. Most work is done to commission and I am always happy to discuss any projects or  ideas.
