Crafting Beauty Through Ironwork Artistry

Owner Rebecca Lloyd has been forging iron since 1994. Since completing a national diploma of restoration blacksmithing at Herefordshire college of technology in 1996, she has been exploring the possibilities of the craft at her workshop in the Adelaide Hills.

The business name ELEMENTAL was chosen to highlight a deep connection with the Earth and the natural materials found in it and on it. Traditionally using fire to manipulate iron is a raw, almost primaeval process that feels directly connected to the whole of the planet, harnessing Air, Fire, Water and Earth. The logo, the Chartres Cathedral labyrinth, represents a journey over many years that is ongoing. The path and the culmination of life experiences that has led to the work we have produced and the evolution of the practice.

The work at Elemental currently involves functional and sculptural work. We enjoy collaborative work and commissions are welcome. Contact us via the website for your hand forged ideas to be brought to life.

Our display space/gallery is open on the weekends, Saturday to Monday 10-3.
