Smithey Ironware is a backyard story. Their founder, Isaac Morton, hatched the idea for Smithey while tinkering around his woodshed admiring the smooth surfaces and timeless design of vintage ironware. He developed an expertise in restoring beautiful old cookware pieces, which he would then gift to friends and family.
After years of studying collector’s books and bird-dogging rusty old pieces to restore to their 19th century glory, the prospect of creating something new piqued his curiosity.
Creating and sharing a cast iron cookware line that honored the classic style of vintage pieces, but also harnessed modern technology and processes felt like a good idea. And from that idea – that a lost art might be restored – Smithey Ironware was born.
Then in 2018, Smithey partnered with renowned Charleston blacksmith Robert Thomas to expand into carbon steel cookware. It’s called the farmhouse collection and it’s individually hand-forged and visually unique, while sharing core design features true to the Smithey name. The resulting cookware is beautiful AND functional.
Smithey Ironware designs and crafts their cookware in the USA, and their talented team of craftsmen and women individually inspect every Smithey multiple times throughout the manufacturing process.
They guarantee the quality of every Smithey for life. They intend for your Smithey to become a cherished possession, and they want to support you in your cooking journey.
“From the Kitchen to the Campfire – Use it well” – sums up Smithey. We love them and hope you will too. Cheers!
