This beautiful Charleston gate was designed by the master artisan, Philip Simmons. The iron was actually wrought by the students of the School of the Building Arts (which has now evolved into the amazing American College of the Building Arts) at the Smithsonian American Folklife Festival on the Mall in Washington, DC.

Shadowy Gate

This beautiful Charleston gate was designed by the master artisan, Philip Simmons. The iron was actually wrought by the students of the School of the Building Arts (which has now evolved into the amazing American College of the Building Arts) at the Smithsonian American Folklife Festival on the Mall in Washington, DC. Not only is the gate a work of art, it casts a pretty amazing shadow.
