Forge & Furnace Tumulus

Author, Community member

It could be said that Forge & Furnace Tumulus is essentially a personal hobby that has gotten out of hand. After more than 30 years of forging work, our activities have more recently expanded to include contemporary sculpture, bronze casting, and ceramic design.Our name, Forge & Furnace Tumulus, was inspired by the presence of six ancient Roman tumuli (tombs) within a 2-kilometer radius of our facility. If you examine some of the work from our smithy and foundry, you may recognize an appreciation for ancient history manifested in works that pay visual and symbolic homage to the record of human creativity...

Hi MM, till now I only expose them on several galleries and expositions in Belgium. Till now I sold several of my SP-lamps but none of the sculptures. If you see the time and effort spent on the sculptures, not many west-European collectors see the time and technical effort spend on them. If I compare the (my) list prices with North-American colleagues I ask a fraction of them (1/4) but still with low response. So most interests catch up while an exposition or event here in Belgium. Try to get some experience to sell some of the work to have some pay back to re-invest in the studio (new welding equipment, trailer for the mobile forge, material and so one )

Thanks Annita for your kind replay!!! Had a look on your portraits here and they really deserve much more up votes :-). Have a nice weekend, I have to take back some work from galleries in expectation of the next Lock-down here in Belgium :-(.
