Jeff Holtby of Arcane Metal Arts is an artist
blacksmith specializing in custom architectural ironwork.
Samples of his finely handcrafted gates, carriage lamps, fences,
railings, grills, furniture, arbors, pot racks, fireplace
screens/tools, hardware, lighting, bells and candleholders
can be found in public and private spaces throughout the Northwest.
Jeff uses traditional forging methods to work
in a variety of styles. In addition to steel, he utilizes
brass, copper, stainless, and wrought iron. He launched his
smithing business in 1997 after twenty-five years of experience
in the field of metals. He’s demonstrated for Northwest
Blacksmith Association conferences and his work has been featured
in Hot Iron News and Seattle Homes and Lifestyles.
Balcksmithing carries with it a community
heritage and through it Jeff produces handmade work that provides
a warm and welcoming environment. He is able to create a personal
and friendly touch, a sense of the hand-done, that is enduring.
