Artist's Statement
Creek Hollow Forge is a full-featured, traditional blacksmith shop that specializes in decorative, hand-forged metal work. The Forge’s blacksmith, Greg Metzler, is formally trained in artisan metalwork and has over 10 years of experience. Greg’s focus is on functional, artistic items such as pot racks, fireplace tools, trivets, utensils, knives, garden-related items and custom gifts - all blend artistic form with function. If you have a special project, we’d be happy to discuss it with you. Custom orders are welcome.
These make great hostess gifts. Bring a bottle of wine and one of these to your favorite party.
Hand-forged Steel
These hand-forged garden lights hold mason jelly jars for votives, or as many of our clients do, you can use them to hold wine glasses. They can be custom sized so you can use them next to your favorite beach chair.
Hand-forged Steel
Hand-forged fire pokers can be customized by style and size.
Hand-forged Steel
This hand-forged trivet is made from a single piece of mild steel. Custom sizes and alternative designs are available.
Hand-forged Steel
Coat racks can be made in any length with hooks of any style. This particular style is more modern, but works equally well in an Arts and Crafts style-home or something more modern. The holes are punched (not drilled) to allow for mounting using screws into studs 16 inches on center. Custom sizes ok.
Hand-forged Steel
These hand-forged stocking hangers' unique design allows you to hang a stocking from a fireplace mantle without having to drill holes. The weight of the stocking (whether full or empty) keeps the hanger in place.
Hand-forged Steel
This piece is hand forged from 3/8 inch mild steel. Stainless steel wire is used to provide a long-lasting, corrosion-free cheese slicer.
Hand-forged Steel
Hand-forged knives of various styles. We custom forge and are formally trained in knife making and most importantly, heat treatment.
Hand-forged tool steel
This piece is custom made to fit an antique wooden dough bowl. The advantage of having something hand-forged is it can be tailored to your needs.
Hand-forged Steel
This hand-forged towel ring is styled to fit into both modern and more traditional decors.
