Welcome to the Daniel Miller web site.
Daniel is a blacksmith/metal sculptor who makes his living practicing an ancient craft, and like many people who
work with there hands to create objects, he is not comfortable in the world of computers and electronics.
This site has been created and is maintained by the friends who know and love him and are willing to act as his liaison to
this world.
Daniel grew up in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and has been working in the world of metal for more than thirty years.
He is one of the most respected members of his craft, and well known among the smithing community. His work has appeared
at the American Craft Museum in NY, and in gallery exhibitions around the world. He is one of only a handful of
Americans to be featured in "Hephaestus" the annual German publication which celebrates the work of the world's
finest practicing blacksmiths. Daniel's work has also been featured on countless covers of "The Anvil's Ring" the official
publication of the Artist Blacksmiths Association of North America.
Daniel does not maintain a gallery and this site does not represent a catalogue from which to place orders.
All of Daniel's work is commissioned and one of a kind. He favorite medium is bronze, but he also works in mild steel,
wrought iron, brass, copper, silver, and other materials as the work requires. He operates a one man shop, occasionally
working with his friend and fellow Smith, Andy Britten. He considers his most consequential work to be "functional art" or
"functional sculpture." His tables, lamps, railings, fireplace tools are often infused with meaning and symbolism.
The best way to contact Daniel is by phone; 828-456-4094.
You can also email him at info@millermetalsmith.com and your message will be relayed to him.
