Welcome to The Rustic Merchant
The Rustic Merchant is based in rural Somerset and offers a wide range of hand forged and traditional Ironmongery, from hooks to hinges for building renovations or projects in need of period features.
We have spent many years building our range of products and invested a lot of time sourcing artisan blacksmiths who are understanding of traditional hardware and have the skills to reproduce it.
All our wrought iron products are produced by hand, meaning they are made on the anvil in the traditional way and will show signs of hand forging.
Our cast iron products are also produced in small foundries and are hand cast. Once cast they are hand finished, again making each item unique.
Our online shop stocks coat hooks, hinges, handles, bolts, latches and many more items that look original and feel authentic. These will not be found in DIY stores.
If there is something in particular you need for your project, don’t hesitate to get in touch and we will try to help.
