| | | Bago Luma - Hand-forged Wrought Iron Furniture
|    Unique designs manufactured using over scaled materials, rustic finishing methods and old craft processes result in a very casual yet elegant product - That's Bago Luma style!
For hand-forged iron furniture and accessories that truly blend design and function look to the iron artists at Bago Luma. Decidedly oversized, deliberately rustic, and distinctly elegant, their collections include furnishings for home and garden, as well as retail and commercial applications.
The term “wrought iron” is greatly abused in today’s marketplace. Technically, it should only be applied to iron that has been shaped by a smith’s hammer while it is extremely hot.  Using a special coal made from Mesquite, our craftsmen create a very hot fire. Pieces of iron are held in the fire until they become virtually white hot. It is then placed on an anvil and hammered into shape, a process called “forging”. True wrought iron can usually be distinguished by its sensuous patterns and curves, and marks of the hammer are frequently evident. Since wrought ironwork is forged by hand, small irregularities are apparent – and valued as evidence of the smith’s craft.
We draw upon old European design motifs to adorn functional pieces that are created for today’s lifestyles. Each bears the markings left by the primitive process of hand forging, and is offered in a variety of hand painted finishes. The combination of classic European design motifs, over scaled materials and rustic finishing methods results in a very casual yet elegant product.
*********************
New designs. Old craft processes.
By drawing their inspirations from both antique and contemporary sources, Bago Luma manufacturers 30 – 40 new items a year that reflect current design directions. Everything they make is constructed and finished by hand. This gives even the most contemporary pieces a timeless appeal. Whether your look is traditional, transitional, or decidedly neoteric, Bago Luma has product to fit today’s lifestyles.

Finishes for Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
Traditional or whimsical, indoors or out? Only Bago Luma makes it so easy to get what you want.
Because all finishes are applied by hand, variations are to be expected. Product may be purchased “unfinished”, allowing you to have it finished on site or sent to a powder coating facility.
NEW! Weather Resistant Finishes
Bago Luma has worked closely with designers and technicians at Sherwin Williams to develop a process that allows them to produce finishes that are suitable for use in an unprotected outdoor environment. This procedure is expected to perform as well or better than traditional powder coating, but allows them to continue with their policy of offering only handcrafted and hand finished product. These finishes are not limited to outdoor use; they will look great in any room of the house!

Custom Orders
At Bago Luma it’s easy to get what you need for that difficult space. Choose any piece in their line, then resize it, reshape it or add another feature to fit your needs. Add wine storage to a shelf unit or simply eliminate the fleur de lis decor. Minimal adaptations to our designs can solve a myriad of design dilemmas. Unless you are buying high volume pieces for a contract project, they will not fabricate an entirely new design but they will modify existing designs upon request. Call our customer service department to learn more about how Bago Luma can modify their pieces to fit your specific needs.
