Industrial Foundry Gear Pattern

Excited to have acquired a stash of wonderful antique and vintage foundry gear patterns that would make for great industrial wall art installations! See my offerings here.

Foundry patterns like these are one-of-a-kind wooden models from which molds would be made for then casting in iron for machinery. Since only one such model would be needed to make several iron duplicates and then discarded when they were no longer needed, they are much more rare than their iron offspring.

Their dynamic industrial style and worn patina makes them very decorative, and their lightweight nature makes them perfect for safe and easy wall mounting.

Several are from the Chain Belt Company of Milwaukee, WI that revolutionized industry in the late 1800s with the concept of replacing leather belts with their Rex chain belts for driving machinery, Schlitz Brewing Company being one of their first clients.

Ranging from 17" to 32" diameter, you're sure to find the perfect one for your project.

Industrial Gears from Iron Anarchy on the Disney Channel's Liv And Maddie show.

A few months ago, Iron Anarchy was contacted by Lisa, a Hollywood producer of the Disney Channel's "Liv And Maddie" sitcom. She needed some large iron gears to create a clock tower set for the show. I located several large gears for her and delivered them to the stage at Sunset Gower Studios, my old stomping grounds when I used to work

Industrial Gears from Iron Anarchy on the Disney Channel's Liv And Maddie show.

in the LA film and television industry.

The gears have a dramatic presence in the dark and moody steampunk style set where they appear as the clockworks of a massive urban clock tower, the lair of an evil villain in the "Cowbell-A-Rooney" episode which aired in October 2015.

I truly was thrilled to work with Lisa on this project, being able to source the materials she needed to bring a director's vision to life. I'm passionate about finding this old rusty iron and getting it into the hands of those who also love it enough to give it new life.

Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this process, Lisa! The set looks amazing!

Check out all my antique and vintage industrial gear and wheel decor on my website. If you don't see what you're needing to bring your vision to life, contact me and I'll find it for you!

Iron Anarchy recently recieved a request from a client in Texas to create an installation of industrial gears and wheels for a 4’ x 7’ space in his home. Attached is a proposed layout featuring a large central wooden gear flanked by two metal wheels with worn paint, and then assorted metal gears and wheels. An old industrial chain “ties" the elements together, while creating a strong vertical accent which moves the eye up and down the wall.

Excited to introduce the HLJ Sculpture Series- a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces featuring ornate cast iron factory gear wheels from the 1800s mounted onto antique buggy jack pedestals. Dynamic designs and wonderful old patinas. I love the ingenuity of old jacks, and their intricate industrial designs beg to be repurposed as art elements. Topped with a dazzling wheel, they spring back to life, allowing their form and craftsmanship to be appreciated in an all new light.

Industrial Gear Wall Sculpture *Select*

Today I received final approval on a pair of layouts I created for an architect client in Philadelphia. See main photo.

Was contacted last week by DAS Architects for an installation of antique gears and wheels in a pair of 7’ wall niches for the activity room in a new development. They sent me the niche dimensions, wall covering samples and gave me direction as to what they were looking for, so I developed a series of layouts for them within their budget. The chosen sculptures feature items from my online shop- a massive antique saw mill blade (cut in half), as well as antique and vintage iron wheels and gears. A length of old, square-link industrial chain provides a vertical accent in each piece.

Now with the design chosen, we’re moving forward with preparing the elements for mounting, then shipping them to Philadelphia for installation. So exciting!

1800’s Antique Industrial Cast Iron Gear Sculpture

Very excited about the recent acquisition of several antique industrial gears, each engraved with the number of cogs on its wide face. Thick cast iron with gently swirling spokes and luscious patinas!

From the Montgomery Worsted Mills, an old textile mill on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places along the Wallkill River at the end of Factory Street in the village of Montgomery, New York. Some still have their thick layer of factory grime embedded with wool fibers, validating its provenance from the mill! A great piece of American history!

Mary & George’s Industrial Gear Wall Sculpture Installation

Recent clients and newest friends, Mary and George wanted to create an industrial gear focal point for their Detroit loft’s living room wall. They sent a photo of the area, and I Photoshopped some arrangements at various price points for their consideration. We then collaborated on the designs until one was chosen. Custom wall brackets were fabricated and all elements were shipped to Detroit where the wall sculpture sprang to life!

They wrote:
“From start to finish it has been great working with you - you have been professional, accommodating and had a complete understanding of the design idea we were going for. You are highly recommended!”

Great job, guys! I had an amazing time working with you too! I hope you get lots of enjoyment from the piece. Thanks for sharing.

Looking forward to discussing your industrial decor needs.
