Matthew and Karine Maynard are designers, blacksmiths and artists who use metal and
architectural space as their media. As a husband and wife team, they specialize in
hand-forged custom stair rails (railings), furniture and applied design. Their work has been featured internationally & given prominence by the National Ornamental Misc. Metals
Association and the Artist Blacksmiths Association of North America. Recently they have been awarded one of the highest acclamations of the Kentucky Arts Council, with support from the National Endowment for the Arts. Their large
commissions are primarily installed in private residences throughout the Midwest and
southern United States, but smaller works reside in homes and businesses from California
to Italy.
Each element of their work reflects their professional attention to aesthetic detail, design
and function with a focus on quality over quantity.
"We work closely with our clients throughout the design process and look forward to
collaborating with them and creating something that will last for generations to come".
