Title

Iron Beds - Celtic Wrought Iron Bed Co - Iron Beds for your Sweet Dreams-

Description

Looking back I suppose it was a natural thing for me to become interested in Iron works. I remember as a 5 year old my Dad taking me to the Iron foundry where he worked in Cork City, Ireland. Even then I was fascinated by this particular place. This was the late 50s and the work was not easy. It was the only job my Father ever had, from the time he left school until he retired. Sadly this place is no longer there, in its place is a modern bus depot.

I qualified as a welder and my progression into making Iron beds came about purely by accident. In my work people kept bringing things to fix and repair. In the early '90s more and more people were bringing old Iron beds to fix. Those were beds which were in the family for many years. It was at this time I really became interested in the possibility of actually making those Iron beds. Old Iron beds were found by me, repaired and sold, as those beds were getting scarce it was then I decided to actually make these beds from scratch.

A particular bed called the Sneem was a very popular bed in the early 1900s in Ireland. Some time a go I was very delighted to see this actual bed made in my factor in the famous film about the life of one of our great Irish leaders, Michael Collins.
