Iron Glow Creations LLC began as a heartfelt Christmas gift—a single spark of creativity from Reiner, who designed and crafted custom metal pieces for his wife and three kids. What started as a personal gesture quickly ignited a deeper passion and purpose, evolving into the business you see today. Rooted in Buffalo, NY, our family-founded company has grown into a one-of-a-kind metal art shop, blending artistry with personal storytelling. For us, every piece carries the warmth of that first gift and the spirit of the people we love most.

At the heart of Iron Glow Creations is Reiner—he’s the hands behind every design. From conceptualizing and sketching each piece to plasma cutting, personalizing, and finishing it by hand, he pours skill, patience, and heart into every creation. His work brings to life majestic wildlife like buffalo, moose, and bears, as well as scenic views, mountain scenes, and Buffalo-themed pride pieces that reflect our region's natural beauty and spirit. Each one is not only handmade, but made to last—crafted with care, creativity, and a deep sense of purpose.

Behind the scenes, Reiner's wife Megan and their oldest daughter Lauren help run the sales and social media side of things, sharing our journey and connecting with a growing community of people who love meaningful, handcrafted art. As a family, we believe in storytelling through steel—and every design created is a piece of that story. What began as a Christmas gift idea has turned into something much bigger: a celebration of home, nature, and personal connection.
