Art forge workshop and metal article manufacturing established since 1946

This family-owned art metalworking business has a remarkable history that began in 1946 with the creation of a traditional forge. From the mid-1950s onwards, the activity specialised in the artisanal manufacturing of objects in copper, brass and noble metal sheets. The expertise developed over the decades enables the production of a varied range of handmade articles: flower pots, umbrella stands, letterboxes, watering cans, cake moulds and fire-tinned solid copper baking forms, particularly appreciated for pastry-making and the creation of refined desserts. In the early 1990s, the company experienced significant growth thanks to a strong market trend and expanded its offering towards typically Swiss gift items. The catalogue was enriched with keyrings, bags, backpacks and decorative boxes adorned with emblematic motifs such as edelweiss, the Swiss cross, the ibex or the Matterhorn, all developed with original designs. The integration of new materials such as wood and felt has enabled further diversification of the gift product range. The strength of this company lies in its constant ability to adapt to market developments, customer expectations and current trends. The creative team regularly develops innovative and original products that have firmly anchored the brand in specialised retail. The Swiss quality of the products constitutes a major selling point, and the existing assortment continues to be enriched and expanded on an ongoing basis. The current owners wish to take a well-deserved retirement and are ready to actively support the handover process. They are committed to providing intensive support to the buyer and ensuring thorough training to guarantee the continuity of this unique artisanal expertise. This opportunity is aimed at an entrepreneur passionate about craftsmanship and eager to perpetuate a tradition whilst developing new commercial prospects.
