This reticulated silver and gold vessel holds 8-10 toothpicks, a days supply; yet are served one at a time. Commissioned by the IEEE Computer Society. Forged Fabrication is unquestionably the most satisfying of metals techniques. Like no other, it allows you to explore the plastic attributes of metal in a spontaneous and participatory way.

I've had 3 pieces made here and they've all been great. Mr. Schwartz takes the time to explain how he'll make your piece and really makes sure he gets the details right. Even though he makes unique one of a kind jewelry, his prices are still lower than the big name stores. Absolutely phenomenal service, workmanship, and cost. I highly recommend Creative Metalworks to anyone looking for an engagement ring.

I had a good experience and enjoyed the consultation with Mike. I can't understand where the anonymous is coming from, no review or anything but a rating. Pathetic. With that said, I went to see him about a consultation for a custom job, it was a walk in and he was so nice and took his time with me. He was strait forward and with the project's complexity he was honest with the price and looked out for my own good and wanted me to know this would be something extravagant.
He does GREAT work, he even has two fully working carousels he made which looks like they human size ones shrunk down. Intricate detail masterfully done, you get what you pay for and he is worth every cent.
