Inspirations in Metalwork

Located in the charming shopping village of Carmel-by-the Sea, Borroméo Forge presents hand-forged ironwork for the hearth & home, specializing in collections for the fireplace, lighting, cocktail tables, consoles, mirrors, candelabras and all the fine furnishings & table settings you can imagine in metalwork. Named for St. Charles Borroméo, the renowned Patron Saint of Mission San Carlos Borroméo del Rio Carmelo (the Carmel Mission) as well as Learning & the Arts. It is this historic reverence for the arts and craftsmanship that inspires our creations in metal. Please visit us to explore hand-forged metalwork and treasures to grace your hearth & home or explore our Metalwork Portfolio to inspire custom ideas.

Thoughts on Design

“Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works. The design of the Mac wasn’t what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it’s all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it. Most people don’t take the time to do that.

Steve Jobs - may he rest in peace.
