A Reprive: Charleston Ironworks

I didn’t really talk a whole lot about our Honeymoon to Charleston, SC, so I’d thought instead I’d share some of the best pictures (that I have) of our trip to the south.

Charleston has a real obsession with iron. Very ornamental iron. It’s on every single house that lines the inner city. I think what amazed me the most was the symmetry of each piece. Perfect symmetry is one of the most catching things to anyone’s eye.

But the most interesting find was this gothic goat head door knocker.

I love it. Maybe because it seems devilish. Charleston has over 100 active congregations in the “Holy City” so finding this piece of work makes me curious about the darker side of Charleston.
