I was approached by Gary Friedman and his team from restoration Hardware this year to design a group of lights for them. Gary and the team had eaten at Camino restaurant in Oakland CA and liked the lights I had done for them. I ended up designing 11 lights for RH for the fall catalog.
These production lights are beautifully crafted, well designed and very affordable.
If you’re interested in a uniquely designed and crafted light just for you please contact me. jon at formandreform dot com
My custom work is made right here in West Oakland in my shop Form & Reform. Each piece is signed and made to make your space uniquely yours. Here is some of the custom lighting I have done.

This is a gate I designed for the City of Oakland. It’s for the Peralta Hacienda Historic park in the the fruitvale neighborhood of Oakland. I used the historic brand from the Peralta Family ranch.

In addition to making strange fire stuff and art cars I do make some wonderful, practical, safe things for your home. Here is a coat rack I designed for my Company Form & Reform.
The mythological god Pan, a playful and mischievous character, had the torso of a man and the legs of a goat. The graceful and playful lines of the legs on this line made me think of him immediately. We use hammer and anvil to forge steel into these life like leg shapes, combined with textured bar. Why not bring a touch of myth and mischief into your life?

Ancient techniques used on a turn of the century design for a modern version of the hospital bed.
I hand forged each section giving this simple streamlined design hand hammered textural details. A hospital bed is specifically designed to facilitate convalescence, traditionally in a hospital or nursing facility, but increasingly in other settings, such as a private residence.

In 1987 I founded Form & Reform a hand-forged furniture and accessories blacksmith shop. Steel, fire, glass, wood, and a passion for craft and excellence infuse every item we make. From the heat of the forges to the cool precision of our artisans, we endeavor to produce furniture of a quality that you would be proud to bequest to your children, and will last long enough to make the journey.
The mythological god Pan, a playful and mischievous character, had the torso of a man and the legs of a goat. The graceful and playful lines of these table legs made us think of him immediately. We use hammer and anvil to forge steel into these life like leg shapes, combine them with textured bar, and top them with 3/8” glass. Why not bring a touch of myth and mischief into your life?
A little old-fashioned with plenty of style, the Vera tables and shelves serve as great display pieces in groups or individually. The solid 3/4″ thick, ecologically sustainable, plantation-raised hardwood tops are a natural Cherry color and coated with a durable polyurethane specially created for restaurant use. You can find two of our popular shelving units, the Oval Shelf and Stand, in the Vera line as well as tables.
