Made in Detroit Since Serving Since 1987!
C.A.N. Art Handworks, is a Detroit-based studio specializing in the restoration, fabrication, and preservation of ornamental architectural and historic metalwork.
Founded by award-winning Master Craftsman Carlos Nielbock, our practice bridges centuries-old techniques with contemporary design to bring new life to sculptures, monuments, and ornamental metalwork.
With deep roots in European guild traditions and a commitment to cultural preservation, we work at the intersection of art, architecture, and history. From custom commissions in Historic Districts from Grosse Pointe, Bloomfield Hills, and Indian Village to restoring the Spirit of Detroit to crafting custom gates and public art installations, our studio is trusted by architects, municipalities, cultural institutions, and private collectors alike.
Every project we undertake is an act of stewardship—honoring craftsmanship, place, and legacy through expert metalwork that endures.
