About Metallgestaltung Wehrle
Metallgestaltung Wehrle is a master blacksmith operation in Küssaberg-Dangstetten on the High Rhine, specializing in modern metal design and forging work for about 30 years. The offerings include art forging and metal construction according to customer requirements, including balconies, stairs, railings, window grilles, canopies, coverings, carports, gates, fences, privacy screens, furniture, lamps, art objects, and sacred statuary – traditionally forged and also executed in stainless steel. Iron is combined with materials such as wood, stone, and glass. A second focus is the traditional blacksmithing of fire-welded and folded Damascus steel, from which blades, cutlery, and swords are created. Additionally, the smithy offers blacksmithing events and courses: At three charcoal-fired forge furnaces, each with an anvil, up to twelve people can forge their own objects under guidance.
