‘From the Anvil’ is an artisan lighting and ironmongery manufacturer based in the heart of Wales, UK, renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and bespoke design. Founded in 1996 by Mark and Bernadette Underhill, the brand began as a small family business selling ironmongery and fixings from their home. Unsatisfied with the limited range of products available, Mark utilised his background as a metalwork teacher to design his own traditional handmade ironmongery, crafted from solid steel and forged on an anvil to ensure unrivalled durability and character. By 2000, ‘From the Anvil’ was officially launched, and their dedication to quality craftsmanship has seen their product range grow exponentially. Today, the brand operates from a factory in Llandrindod Wells, creating lighting and ironmongery that combines timeless appeal with modern versatility.
The ‘From the Anvil’ collection includes an inspiring range of pendant lights and fixtures that seamlessly blend traditional farmhouse aesthetics with contemporary design, making them a perfect fit for modern, traditional, and eclectic interiors alike. Each lighting piece is handcrafted using high-quality materials such as solid brass, steel, and copper, with unique finishes that bring warmth and depth to any space. Their pendant lights, in particular, offer a distinctive touch, with smooth and burnished finishes in exclusive colours inspired by nature, ensuring every piece is as individual as the home it enhances.
With a commitment to heritage craftsmanship and attention to detail, ‘From the Anvil’ continues to produce lighting and ironmongery that combines functionality with timeless style, making them a go-to choice for those seeking unique, high-quality lighting solutions. Whether you’re designing a contemporary kitchen or restoring a traditional farmhouse, ‘From the Anvil’ offers lighting products that elevate any space while celebrating the artistry of hand-forged design.
