Mikael Sigfredsson Balt, död 3 juni 1676 i Uleåborg, var en möjligen fransk belätssnidare, som senare verkade i Finland.

Han arbetade med kyrkointeriörer. Han flyttade från Stockholm till Finland, där han 1658 gifte sig med Catharina Forbus (1640–1691), som var syster till frun till borgmästaren i Brahestad Henrik Corte (död 1680).[1]

Mikael Balt snidade inredning för Brahestads gamla kyrka, som stod färdig 1655, med votivkonst i ek från Bogesund, som idag finns i Brahestads museum. Han gjorde också predikstolarna i Åbo domkyrka, Uleåborgs kyrka, Karleby kyrka och andra kyrkor i Finland.
