Old West Saloon Bar Historic Origin And Design Inspiration

In 1877, D.C. Thorne built the saloon and named it The Palace Saloon; it was one of over forty bars which stood next to one another on Whiskey Row in Prescott. Over the course of its history it has seen such famous patrons as Wyatt Earp, Virgil Earp, Doc Holliday (in the 1870s before they headed south to Tombstone), and Steve McQueen. During his time in Prescott before leaving for Tombstone, Wyatt Earp was involved in several gunfights behind the saloon, killing two men. Holliday also killed a man in the saloon during a knife fight.

The Palace was much more than a fancy "watering hole". Men came in to check for notices of work available; it served as an election central for several area political races and cattle spreads; and mineral claims were bought and sold over the bar.

The Palace is still the oldest frontier saloon in Arizona and the most well-known and historic restaurant and saloon in the state.In the late 1870's, Wyatt Earp, Virgil Earp and Doc Holliday were patrons of The Palace. Virgil and his wife Allie lived in Prescott where Virgil owned a saw mill at Thumb Butte and was Town Constable.

Wyatt and his other brother, Morgan, visited Virgil in Prescott before they left for Tombstone. Doc was on a winning streak on Whiskey Row (possibly at The Palace) where he won $10,000 in Poker. He joined the Earp's eight months later in Tombstone.

More Historical Significance: The Whiskey Row Fire

old west saloon bar hand carved wood bar modern western barOn July 14th, 1900, The Palace was destroyed by the Whiskey Row fire. The ornately carved 1880's Brunswick Bar, which is still in use, was carried to safety across the street to the plaza by patrons.

In order to rebuild, the owner Bob Brow formed a partnership with Ben M. Belcher and Barney Smith, owners of the former Cabinet Saloon, also destroyed in the fire.

By 1901, The Palace Hotel and Bar, complete with Chinese restaurant and barber shop, was back in business. Today's Palace owners have done extensive remodeling to restore the Palace to its grandeur of 1901. Although still a frontier saloon, the addition of dining makes The Palace the gathering place it once was.

Wrought Iron Hardware Hand Forged By Master Blacksmith

old west saloon bar hand carved wood bar modern western barAll of the hardware on the old west saloon bar is made from solid, hand forged wrought iron built by the hands of a genuine master blacksmiths. That means built with hammer and anvil over a coal fired forge, using age old tried and tested techniques. We do not use casting, drop forging, build from a mold or any other fast or mass production process when creating our iron products. Hand forged blacksmithing makes for a product that is uniquely yours and will never be exactly reproduced. Furthermore, building it from wrought iron ensures that it will stand the test of time with little or no maintenance. This is because unlike other metals, wrought iron doesn't corrode with exposure to the elements.

Additionally, all of our wrought iron hardware products are advance patinated with our proprietary process. This process infuses a hand applied iron oxide patina to the metal at over 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes for a finish that won't crack, flake, or chip like powder coating or painted on finishes. Our combination of top grade materials and master craftsmanship makes for a quality of product that is unmatched anywhere at any price. This includes, certified, world class fine art quality detail all the way down to the hardware.
