Trip to Spain 4 - Metalwork

I love this little gate to a home in Robledillo de la Jara. This house was the first place our hostess, Angeles, ever went on vacation.


















The metal work is obviously hand-made and done right. I should've asked Angeles how long it's been there.





















It's all done with rebar!
















Using traditional blacksmithing methods of heating & hammering.





















I love the repition of the swirls, and the differences in the four panels.
