Specializing in Restoration and Reproduction of Historical Masterworks in Iron

Restoration of Ironwork on an old well head brought over from Europe around 1900

The Well

This beautiful well head made of Rose of Verona stone was purchased in Europe and brought to America around 1909. Originally it had ironwork

The owner had original photographs of the well with it's ironwork taken in 1916.
From these pictures we made up drawings using the known height of the well for reference of dimension.
