Iron Fence
I am trying to find an original or new iron fence that is identical to this one. Does anyone know of an ironworker that makes this specific fence? I've tried Olde Good Things and other antique shops and no one has this.
Thanks-

Have you tried Vaccaro's on 15th St and Junk to Jems in West Babylon, LI?

You could try Wemco Casting, they do some projects for the city.

I know Italian Art and Iron Works used to specialize in the "brownstone" type iron works. They are on Bergen between Court and Smith. Good luck

Yes, Italian Art Iron Works (also known as Vinnie's) can replicate this fence. They have the original moulds.

We have a short section of fence like that (about 4 or 5 feet long) in our basement. I think it's part of what's left from the original fence prior to the 7th Ave. Plane crash. We'd be willing to sell it to you for a reasonable price. Write me at LEEB155@YAHOO.COM if you're interested.

You can try Petrillo Iron Works on 15 west 9th st in Red Hook by the battery tunnel, they master in historical iron work, by far they are the best
