Blacksmithing, elementary in its importance to the development of civilization, is highly sophisticated in its practice. To most, the Blacksmith is epitomized by sheer brute strength, but the power of visualization is far more important than brawn to the smith; and that is the secret of a successful Artist Blacksmith.

Iron Butterfly Blacksmithing is a family run business serving southern and central Ontario. We have operated out of the same rural farm location for over 50 years, and specialize in custom iron and metal design, fabrication and refurbishment. Anything you dream in metal, we can create.

We have a complete range of equipment and expertise. We deploy both a coal and propane forge, depending on the task, to heat our materials. We then form, combining ancient brute strength techniques, and modern metal rolling and fabrication tools to create the final work of art.

In addition to fabrication, we also do full installs of our work, as well as custom mobile welding and metal refinishing. If you need something designed, created, or restored in metal, look no further.
