Cat Tail Gate

Cat Tail Gate
Salisbury (Litchfield County)
Connecticut

This gate is fabricated with 1/2" x 2" flat bar for the frame and the scrolls were 1/4" x 2" custom bent to fit the size of gate.  The Cat Tails are all hand done by using the traditional Blacksmithing techniques, then welded onto the frame.  The customer picked the font for the initials which were the first letter of every family members name.  The initials were then custom formed completely by hand and hammer.
