Charleston Forge on Succeeding as an American Manufacturing Company 

A walk through the Charleston Forge factory is an interesting journey. As glowing red hot steel is pulled out of a high-temperature propane heater, ready to be molded with a high-powered hydraulic pounder and an artisan’s hammer, the leg of a custom-designed table begins to take shape.

The new Charleston Forge catalog is what can only be described as a furniture dream book. Thick as a Vogue fashion magazine and just as graphically striking, the catalog is created and printed every two years.
