Organic railings

This pair of organic hand rails we made and installed in Fairfield, CT. The cap rail is made from bundles of textured 3/4" round steel, and all of the "branches" are similarly textured to achieve a convincing bark appearance. The posts are all tapered and textured 1-1/4" round steel. The two posts at the bottom of the stairs are hollow to allow wiring for LED strip lighting that was installed in the underside of the cap rail. The leaves were all textured and molded to give additional depth to the design, and the acorns were forged right here in our shop in CT.
