Steve is a master smith, metal artist, fine artist and artisan…

You’ll find Steve and his bespoke and timeless blacksmith shop in Wildes Meadow. A very small village tucked away behind Burrawang in the lush green rolling hills of the Southern Highlands of NSW, only 90 minutes from the city of Sydney.

As Steve would say, “It’s obviously the place we were meant to be, because when we built the new blacksmith shop, based on a traditional blacksmith shop of the 1880s, nearly 7 years ago now we found out that there had already been a blacksmith shop here since the 1860s, and this shop only closed in the early 1960s. So, as of 2023, there’s been a blacksmith shop on this very site in the Southern  Highlands at Wildes Meadow for close on 160 years!”
