Anthony Arkus
Blacksmith


I have been a full-time blacksmith for more than 25 years, creating thousands of pieces of work. All of my work is original design. I individually hand-forged each piece using both ancient and modern tools and techniques. My designs are both contemporary and traditional with a predominance of natural form creating a marriage of form and function. Materials include iron, stainless steel, copper and brass. I have exhibited my work at major art shows in the eastern United States, and have won several awards including Virginia Beach Board Walk Art Show.
