Layout

Tobho Mott's house, made of timber and plaster, is larger than all other buildings on the Street of Steel. Its upper stories tower over the street, and Tobho lives above his shop. The double doors have an ebony and weirwood carving of a hunting scene. Two stone knights armored in red suits of armor in the shapes of a griffin and a unicorn guard the entrance. Tobho employs a slim serving girl in the house.

Journeymen and apprentices, such as Gendry, work in Tobho's smithy, a cavernous stone barn found in the narrow yard behind the house. Each corner of the building has a blazing forge.

Lord Eddard Stark, Hand of the King, visits the shop of Tobho Mott during his investigation into the death of his predecessor, Lord Jon Arryn. Tobho has wine served to the Hand in his shop, and he then introduces Ned to Gendry in his smithy.

A Storm of Swords

At the request of Lord Tywin Lannister, the new Hand, Tobho melts Eddard's Valyrian steel sword, Ice, to forge two new swords. One is to be given to King Joffrey I Baratheon, and the other to Tywin's elder son, Ser Jaime Lannister.

Quotes

The man they wanted was all the way at the top of the hill, in a huge house of timber and plaster whose upper stories loomed over the narrow street. The double doors showed a hunting scene carved in ebony and weirwood. A pair of stone knights stood sentry at the entrance, armored in fanciful suits of polished red steel that transformed them into griffin and unicorn.

When the armorer opened the door, the blast of hot air that came through made Ned feel as though he were walking into a dragon's mouth. Inside, a forge blazed in each corner, and the air stank of smoke and sulfur. Journeymen armorers glanced up from their hammers and tongs just long enough to wipe the sweat from their brows, while bare-chested apprentice boys worked the bellows.
