Founded in the Berkshires in 1985, Great American Ironworks offers simple, elegant design executed at the highest level of craftsmanship. Owner and artisan Robert Bartle's custom-designed and custom-fabricated steel objects lend a refreshing touch of modernist clarity to any interior or exterior environment.
Bartle earned a BFA in Sculpture from the Kansas City Art Institute and an MFA in Sculpture from the Cranbrook Academy of Art. Each Great American Ironworks product is a one-off, and is marked by strong aesthetic intelligence and fine-arts sensibility.
