At The Forged Element Company, we are a collective of passionate artisans, forging a legacy of exquisite, hand-crafted ornamental ironwork. Our journey began with the fiery pursuit of blacksmithing, led by Jordan Borstelmann, whose fascination with steel and form ignited over a decade ago through intense study and apprenticeship. He found a kindred spirit in Jacob Underhill, a dedicated bladesmith honing his craft to Journeyman standards with a love for all things sharp and elegant. Complementing their mastery of metal is Ariel Underhill, an artist whose lifelong dedication to creative expression culminates in the unique, custom handle materials that elevate our work.

Together, we blend the raw power of the forge with the meticulous artistry of design, creating bespoke ornamental items that marry durability with undeniable beauty. Our combined experience in crafting high-end pieces for theme parks and luxury hotels speaks to our commitment to quality, custom solutions, and timeless craftsmanship
