Nile Fahmy Michelle Fahmy
Nile G. Fahmy is a self-taught coppersmith. He is attracted to traditional smithing techniques which today have been all but abandoned due to their time consuming processes. Using these techniques, he creates seamless vessels without the use of casting or other production methods. Each vessel created is a hand forged, one of a kind piece. He finds inspiration in historical works, “wrought in the manner of [a time] when art made precious even the basest of metals.” [The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas]
