The Iron Fish Gallery & Studio

A small gallery showcasing the work of award winning metal sculptor Chase Allen. Coastal themes of fish, crab, turtles and mermaids. All beautifully painted. Most are available to purchase on site. Artist was not onsite when we visited but we were still able to purchase a set of three fish. Transactions are easy just read the posted message.

We first discovered Chase Allen’s art work at an open house in Shipyard on Hilton Head Island. Since then we have become obsessed with his work. We visited his Iron Fish Gallery and Studio at Daufuskie Island last year and have been looking forward to the day when we could add some of his art work to our collection. We have the perfect spot all ready for two of his pretty ladies. Truly an amazing artist!

Neat iron sea art Honors system in effect Thank you from your Arizona friends 😎😇🙏

We have been following Chase's career and collecting his one-of-a-kind artwork for over a decade. We stop at his home on Daufuskie every time we're there and send his work as heirloom-quality gifts to family and friends. His heart (and initials) are evident in every piece he creates. One of my most treasured possessions is the lobster he and my husband designed together for our 15th wedding anniversary. I can.not. recommend him highly enough. We will never stop collecting. He feels like family to us.

I went to college with Chase. He is an amazing guy that now has an amazing family. He’s so talented. We just moved back to Wilmington and he made two pieces for us for our outdoor area and they are so great. Everyone that comes over comments on them and asks where we got them. I love how the items are packaged and I gave him pretty detailed directions on colors for one of the items and it blew me away. He goes above and beyond.

Very nice metal art sculptures, you can watch them work on sculptures in progress. Fun crafty place to go to.

My family and I (8 of us) spent a day on the island last week and as we drove past Iron Fish, we all were excited to stop to check it out. So many awesome pieces of art. Each one is unique and there are so many to choose from. And the workmanship is excellent! You'll never find something, like what's sold at the Iron Fish, and any ordinary store. My husband bought me a beautiful mermaid and it's hanging in my bathroom....it looks great! I highly recommend a stop at this gallery. You won't regret it!

I had a wonderful experience at the iron fish gallery. I loved the island and the relaxed comfortable feel of the gallery. I was able to stand with my family and young son and watch as the this beautiful art was crafted by hand. We were able to even speak personally with the artist himself, Chase Allen. He patiently answered all the off the wall questions that my four year old son had running through his fresh mind. I have one of his pieces in my kitchen now, and I expect to buy another the next time we are in Daufuskie! Beautiful unique art, at a fair price! A must visit while in Daufuskie.

Great product, reasonable prices for handmade sculptures whose creator is making a living off sales. Uses the honor system, which tells you a lot about the character of the artist by itself. The only thing I would've changed is that I would have loved to meet the artist but of course he can't meet everyone. After all He's not Mickie Mouse he's just a human being who also happens to be an artist.

While on the Daufuskie Island, one of the stops you should consider is The Iron Fish Gallery. The items are pricey but unique. When we were there, there was no one on site. However, you could pay with a "honor system" that you can take what you'd like and leave cash or check in the mail slot or leave your contact information and he will email you to get your cc number. There was numerous metal artwork including fish, turtles, mermaids, crabs, and a few other sea creatures. You can get custom made items/colors and have them shipped to you. It's a great spot of find a little piece of iron art to take home with you. NOTE: you got to be looking for the small white building off the side of the road. If you are not paying attention, you can drive your golf cart right past the location. If you saw something but did not want to take chance on leaving money or contact information, go to Chase Allen's The Iron Fish Gallery web site and you can order directly from him and have it shipped.

I was extremely disappointed had added this to my list of island stops and wasn't worth the effort. What you see in the photos is it, nothing but thin sheet metal prices with no draw at all and a splash of paint. The only excitement we had was lifting price tag on the display. The lobster was over 800 dollars and the fish ran from 100 to about 400. Take your cash and pick up a souvenir at the Carmel church museum store well worth it.

Very poor customer service. Wanted an item for a gift, and needed to confirm delivery time (since it was time sensitive) .Don't know if items are in stock, or have to be made to order. Called and left message, emailed question (about delivery) and never got a response(over a week). I'm not sure if you order something if you would get it in six days, six weeks, or six months, so unfortunately I had to look elsewhere for a nice gift. I guess that is what you get in dealing with an artist instead of a business person!
