Company history



1908
Artistic metalworker master Georg Schaefer (Senior) founded the "Art and construction metal works Schaefer with force operation". He was nationally known for the special quality craftsmanship and the shapeliness of his wrought iron gates, and sacred works. 

Filigree craftsmanship

An artistic mirror, decorated with stem roses and flowers, fine fire welded tendrils made from one piece.


1945 Georg Schaefer (Junior) took over the business. The metalsmith and building fitter master extended smithery by interesting material combinations made of brass, copper, tombac, wood and glass.

Style and shapeliness

He created artful objects (tables and chests) in wrought iron with brass and copper inlays.

Innovations with environmental concerns
