Hi all,
I'm new here been lurking here a while and decided to ask for help IDing my anvil. I got the anvil about 2 years ago in a trade and its been sitting. I am currently building a base for it and intend to start using it soon.
The anvil appears to have been heavily used, and the hardie hole and shelf are well worn, also the sides of the face are dinged up. The sides of the anvil have odd gashes in them like someone was driving nails or something in to the sides pretty odd. I can only make out the works "Wrought Iron" on one side there appears to be a logo of some sort but very hard to make out. Almost looks like a person with a hammer. Maybe someone here will have more luck.
I'm attaching pics to this post, Some I rubbed a soap stone on the sides to see if that would help any words or design stand out, the other pics are without the soap stone.
Here I circled the Wrought Iron wording.
Last pic you can just make out a side view of a person with a hammer. the person looks like he has a beard. Maybe I'm just seeing things .
Thanks for any help IDing my anvil.
