The Blacksmith is Back


The work of blacksmiths covers an extraordinary range, both in scale and application. Blacksmiths today are making gates, railings and staircases; sculpture for city centres, private homes and gardens; chairs and tables, doorknockers, light fittings and hinges; bowls, bottle openers and jewellery.

This site is dedicated to promoting artist blacksmiths and the art of blacksmithing internationally. Here you can find the work of members of the Association, some from overseas; you can find a blacksmith in your area; you can join the organisation as a blacksmith, an amateur or an enthusiast, or (provided you live outside Great Britain) you can just subscribe to the magazine we publish.
