BARRETT ROBERTS · VIRGINIA BLACKSMITH
The mark of
the hammer.
Fire pokers, pipe tools, hooks and gifts, shaped by hand at my Virginia forge. I’m Barrett. Come take a closer look at the work.
Made by Barrett. Made by hand.

A wrapped loop.A twisted grip.
The marks of the hammer.
THE COLLECTION
Useful things.
Unmistakably handmade.
Made for the hearth, the home, and the everyday.
Take a closer look.

BEHIND THE FORGE
A hammer.
A fire.
A promise.
I’m Barrett, the maker behind Bear Handed Iron. I forge each piece by hand here in Virginia.
I started making things so I could spend time with my mother at craft shows. She believed I had an artist’s spirit, and asked me to keep creating. This work is my way of keeping that promise.
Thank you for taking a look at what I make, and for considering a place for it in your home.
