Linked below is a pleasant, yet nostalgic, article and slideshow that features Oakland, CA based craftsperson Eric Clausen, who is producing exceptional work in the decorative/functional (and traditional) genre of blacksmithing.

Surprisingly, what strikes me about this piece is not at all what one would initially anticipate from a guy like me that regularly writes about craft issues (but maybe not so out of the ordinary for a self-proclaimed provocateur). After viewing the slideshow that is associated with this article, I am compelled to comment.
