The Inman Gate

A named commission. The design can be built again — under its name.

The Inman Gate closed across a drive, its scrollwork-filled leaves rising to a serpentine top rail, with a white tile-roofed house and palms visible through the ironwork.

A double-leaf estate gate filled with hand-formed scrollwork — paired C- and S-scrolls worked into hearts beneath a serpentine top rail, with fleur-de-lis set into the crown. A banded panel of matched scrolls runs the full width of both leaves along the bottom.

The Inman Gate is the most worked piece in the register. Every scroll is formed individually and fitted to its neighbours, which is why the pattern reads as one continuous field rather than a repeated unit — the curves answer each other across the centre joint instead of stopping at it.

It is the design to point at when someone wants the entrance to be the first statement the property makes. It suits a long approach and a house with some formality to it; on a short drive this much scrollwork has nowhere to be seen from.
