Copper Leaves — inspiration for your commission
Single Frond
A single arching copper stem with sculptural leaves and a flowing botanical shape. Shown on a timber base, this piece is an example of our copper work. Tell us about your space, preferred size and ideas so we can discuss a piece made for you.
Double Frond
Two curved copper stems bring together a cluster of sculptural leaves. This design is a starting point for a conversation: we can discuss the proportions, arrangement and presentation to suit your individual requirements.
Triple Frond
Three arching copper stems carry sculptural leaves in a flowing botanical arrangement. Inspired by this piece? Tell us what you have in mind, where it will sit and what matters to you, and we can explore a commission together.
Tall Copper Leaf Sculpture
Copper leaves on tall, arching stems create a statement sculpture. This example shows the possibilities of working at a larger scale. Each space and brief is different; we welcome your ideas and will discuss a design, dimensions and practical details around your requirements.

Meet the Inashed Forge Collective
Two makers. A shared love of metalwork.
Inashed Forge began with a love of making and repairing. Welding classic Land Rovers led to studying blacksmithing and exploring the possibilities of metal.
Today, we work as the Inashed Forge Collective: two makers bringing our different skills and ideas to sculpture, bespoke commissions and practical metalwork in Herefordshire.
From a small copper leaf to a statement garden sculpture, our work takes many forms. Your ideas and requirements guide the conversation, and we enjoy finding an approach that works for you.
Your ideas come first
Every commission starts with you: what you would like to create, how it will be used and the character of the space it will belong to. Photographs, sketches and an approximate size can help us explore the possibilities.
Discuss the possibilities
Our work is varied, and each brief is different. We will talk through design, materials, scale and practical requirements, then agree the scope, price and timescale for your individual project before work begins.
Made for your space
