Nestled in North East Victoria’s Ovens Valley, High Country Forge offers unique ironwork created using both traditional and modern techniques.

Artist blacksmith Richard Walker has travelled extensively overseas working with several renowned smiths and from his forge at Smoko creates:

- Bold sculptural pieces, both private and public
- Railings and balustrades
- Gates
- Signs
- Furniture
- and small functional/decorative wares

Reproduction and restoration work is also carried out and Richard can incorporate mediums including stone, paint and wood to highlight and enhance the irons natural character. Pieces are forged for exhibitions and works are also undertaken on a commission basis. All are welcome to visit the forge and experience the diversity of artist blacksmithing!
