Forged in Tradition. Given with Love.

Handcrafted in America: Founded in 1923, Wendell August Forge creates heirloom-quality gifts in its Pennsylvania workshop. Each piece honors the stories, milestones, and traditions that bind us together.

Handcrafted with Heart and Heritage

Every Wendell August piece begins with an artist’s vision and passes through the hands of skilled artists, master die engravers, and dedicated craftspeople. Using century-old techniques rooted in ancient metalworking, they create a one-of-a-kind treasure worthy of the moments that matter most.

The Wendell August Forge Process

• Artists: Original artwork establishes the design for every piece.
• Die engravers: The design is transferred into a steel die; hand-engraved pieces may carry the engraver’s hidden signature.
• Craftspeople: Recyclable aluminum and specialty metals are hammered, formed, and carefully finished using the repoussé process.

Wendell August Forge is the oldest and most celebrated forge in America. Special moments deserve to be remembered.
