After completing a blacksmithing course, and with a head full of ideas, the Blue Temper workshop was set up at Somerton Park. The distinctive blue workshop stood out on Byre Ave , and the curved steel gates opened to reveal the glow of the coke forge, and the rhythmic sound in of hammer and anvil beating life into hot steel. In 2005 Chris and his wife Tan bought an old cottage on an acre of land a
t Middleton. The blue workshop was rebuilt, in it’s more spacious surroundings, and now the curved steel gates open to reveal a yard of sculptures and fire bowls, and a showroom full of ideas for your home or garden. Over the years Chris has earnt a reputation for creating quality, handmade ironwork that is built to last. Blue Temper has a range of indoor and outdoor ironwork which customers can buy direct from our showroom. Or if it’s custom ironwork you’re after ,you can choose from our designs, or we can work together to design that individual piece that sits perfectly in your surrounds. Whether it’s a piece of furniture for indoors or out, a decorative screen for that bare wall, a gate or security door with a difference, a sculpture or fire to finish off your outdoor entertaining area or anything else you can dream up, we can make that idea a reality.
