Jeweled Heart is a luxurious wrought iron gate. This dual styled ready to ship piece measures a total of 16 feet in length. Gold tones with subtle
black accents combined with the hammered frame and pickets optimize the texture. The gold tone is a truly luminescent color that plays with the sunlight. All the
little details on this particular design are what make it special. There are several different scroll work designs. Especially noticeable is the cascading scrollwork on
the top of the gate's subtle bell arch. Tight scrolls are tucked within the beautiful structure, while vines and leaves sweep across the top and bottom.
Its name comes from the two prominent hearts featured on both sides of the gate. These basket woven and plated-boarder hearts are extended forward for a
truly multi-dimensional feel. Accompanying the hearts are dual fanciful poppy flowers. Another eye capturing design is found within the center of the gate. This
bold cylindrical pole has alternative pattern of beads and stars. This subtle pattern adds a touch of whimsy. Finally, at the apex of this gate you'll find an ornate
crest. This emblem design has fluid like ribbons and a cluster of stars and a poppy. Ultimately, the Jeweled Heart is a lovely gate for your home's entryway.

Our gates are welded using traditional stick welding processes. Also known as shielded
metal arc welding, this process consists of using a consumable electrode coated
in flux (a chemical agent - zinc oxide - that removes oxidation from metals) to
create an electric arc for welding. The vapors from the flux create an inert gas,
known as shielding gas, which conducts heat and reduces the voltage required for
welding. This process also creates slag, or melted metal, that protects against
atmospheric contamination of the welded material. The slag must be chipped off,
and the overall process requires a skilled artisan for a properly finished piece.
Forging is the traditional means of working iron and other metals. Traditional tools
are the hammer and anvil, and one major benefit of forged metal is that it becomes
harder as it is worked. This is because the grains of the metal are deformed to
follow the new shape, not broken, as in other methods of metalworking. Our gates
are forged in order to provide the most durable final product possible.
Powder coating is the process by
which powdered pigment is applied to and cured on a surface. The process for powder
coating consists of a mechanical and/or chemical treatment of the surface to remove
impurities and contaminants followed by the application of the pigments. Then the
material is cured at high temperatures which makes the pigments flow together and
react chemically to form the coating. Powder coating is preferred for certain surfaces
because it creates or contains close to no volatile organic compounds and does not
sag or run with thicker coats. The overspray can also be recycled so there is little
waste, making it less expensive and creating less hazardous waste. It is also more
versatile than traditional liquid paints. Often, thinner coats of powder coating
will be used for a slightly orange peeled effect to prevent fingerprints, but thicker
coats may be used for a smoother finish. Our gates are powder coated to provide
the most uniform, precise painted effect possible.

Wrought iron is a reliable, attractive metal used for crafting gates. To begin with,
it is versatile, making it suitable for a number of gate applications. It also offers
a unique appearance in comparison to standard metal or wood gates, and can be customized
with a variety of accessories or welded with accents of other metals, such as brass.
It is so striking, that it has become a favored medium for metal sculptors for its
artistic value. Finally, it is durable, a must for security and extended life. As
such, we have chosen wrought iron for some of our finest and most distinctive gates.
