Here is an exciting foray into the world of the artist-blacksmith. Dona Z. Meilach discovers the growing numbers of men and women who revel in lighting up a forge and shaping hot, malleable iron into beautiful, useful objects. Blacksmiths today make both monumental and modest architectural accompaniments, from public art to an infinite number of items we encounter every day. With this book, you will gain an appreciation of the medium and its creators, and realize that blacksmiths do much more than shoe horses. Over 480 color photographs highlight objects for indoor and outdoor use, including fences, railings, gates, doors, sculpture, furniture, lighting fixtures, candleholders, and more. Some are truly "modern" in style while others are inspired by historical references, such as Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Craftsman, and Victorian styles. Today's blacksmiths, designers, artists, and homeowners will find unparalleded inspiration for creating unique yet practical surroundings.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. The glossy paper boards have the same images as the dust jacket. There 256 pages that include the Index, Bibliography and Resources section of this book. The book is filled with color photographic images of ironwork for Railings & Grills, Fences, Gates & Doors, Sculpture, Furniture, Outfitting a Fireplace, Lighting Fixtures and Candle Holders, Decorative Doors and other objects. There are several pages which have the lower outer corner creased, and at the top of pages 127/128 there is a horizontal tear that runs from the fore edge to the image closest to the gutter. However, the tear does not affect the pieces: "Uprising" by Jeff Wallin; "Nyamakala" by Lee Sauder, "Fishy" by Jed Krieger, or "Sagromides of Venus" by John Little, but does impact the background of three of the images. The dust wrapper also a several small tears near the fold from the back panel to back flap. N° de réf. du vendeur Sp362
