About Us

Iron By Aaron designs and fabricates
architectural and other ironwork for
galleries, interior designers, architects, and
contractors.  Traditional blacksmithing,
welding, and other fabrication techniques
are used.

Aaron Craig, the "Aaron" of Iron By
Aaron, was born in Ketchikan, Alaska but
grew up in Taos, New Mexico. Sometime in
his childhood he decided he wanted to
work with metal, but somehow he ended
up cooking for 12 years in many different
Taos restaurants.  Teaching himself to
weld, he began fabricating objects and
gradually learned to forge, originally with
coal and now with propane.  In 2001, he
launched his own business and in 2003
relocated to Santa Fe, New Mexico.  There,
in his 2000 square-foot shop, he creates
custom furniture for several galleries, as
well as railings, functional accessories, and
now a line of hardware and household
accessories.  He has completed a public art
project for the City of Santa Fe, the
Waveform Railing, and is working to
establish himself as an artist locally.  He
welcomes your comments and questions.
