Hey, I'm Char and I started Foraged Steel as a side project whilst working as a HGV technician apprentice. Previously I had been studying Film Studies, Textile and Graphic Design, followed by an Art & Design Foundation Degree. Combining my metal work skills and my artistic background, Foraged Steel became a small business!
I try to work with as many recycled or ‘foraged’ materials as possible, hence the name! My work is mainly with silver. I also mig weld. Metal working allows me to bring to life unique designs and commissions. Giving a new life to otherwise discarded item brings me so much joy, I love a challenge and adore creating bespoke, recycled and handmade products.
