John would love to hear from you: about creating something, arranging instruction, or answering some blacksmithing question.

Ordering individual pieces directly from this site is not possible, but John happily takes orders over the phone or on-line. He does not reproduce one-of-a-kind commissions out of respect for the original client, but he welcomes the opportunity to render a new version of a theme you might like or a motif you may fancy. New designs do take time, but he keeps a modest inventory of popular, smaller, and limited edition items which can be shipped out quickly.

If you possess a metal artifact that has great personal sentimental value or that you just like for its unique shape, color, or finish, John would be happy to discuss a project to incorporate it and showcase its beauty and meaning.

Whatever your idea, please reach out to The Dancing Hammer with the email form or phone number below–John will reply promptly. The exchange could change your life! Find us on Instagram and Facebook to view current projects and visit old favorites. John’s daughter Hannah manages the platforms and will be happy to pass on messages and set up meetings with John. You never know what awaits you with an inquiry into his unique approach to an artistic tradition going back millennia.
