Why Iron for the 6th Anniversary?
The 6th wedding anniversary is traditionally celebrated with iron—a metal that symbolizes the strength and durability of a marriage that has weathered six years together. Just as iron is forged through fire and pressure, your relationship has been strengthened through shared experiences, challenges overcome, and memories created.
At DABforge, we specialize in hand-forged iron anniversary gifts that honor this meaningful tradition with artisan craftsmanship and timeless design.
Hand-Forged Iron Anniversary Jewelry: Built to Last
Unlike mass-produced jewelry, each piece in our iron anniversary collection is individually hand-forged by skilled blacksmiths. This traditional metalworking technique creates unique pieces with character, texture, and soul—perfect symbols for a relationship that's anything but ordinary.

Caring for Your Iron Anniversary Jewelry
Iron jewelry develops a beautiful patina over time, adding character and depth. To maintain your pieces:
- Keep dry when not wearing to prevent excessive oxidation
- Apply a light coat of oil (mineral oil or beeswax) to preserve the finish
- Store in a dry place, preferably in the included wooden gift box
- Embrace the natural aging process—the patina tells your love story
