Having started blacksmithing in 1978, I have developed a wide ranging and extensive portfolio. I am best known for my lamps with blown glass shades, but also make funcitonal work for the kitchen, bath and home in general. I also forge railings.
My personal style is organic in nature, but I enjoy working with clients to develop pieces that reflect their personality and interests, no matter the style.
Roberta is always easy to work with and the communication is very good. Thank you for another successful project.
Roberta is very easy to work with and communicated with us from the beginning to ensure that the fireplace set we got was what we wanted. The work product is superb -- highly functional and absolutely beautiful. The set arrived today (well ahead of schedule) and is already being put to good use. More expensive than other "hand forged" sets on the market, but worth every penny to have an individual piece made with such a high level of craftsmanship.
Communication with Roberta was great and she listened carefully to my requests. Together, we created the perfect piece for my needs. I'm very happy with it.
I'm very happy with the process and the finished product. I have nothing but glowing things to say about my experience and the artist. I will order from this vendor again.
I am 100% delighted with the fireplace grate that Roberta Elliott made for me. It is large enough and heavy enough and just exactly what I wanted. The price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this very skilled blacksmith! AAA++++
