Custom Quality Ornamental Iron Work with Excellence in Service.
I’ve been blacksmithing for over 35 years. The way that the metal moves when it’s being forged is a constant fascination to me, as well as the whole myriad of ways that it can be used in and around the home, garden or public environment to make objects that are both practical and beautiful. Although I enjoy conserving and reproducing our great historical heritage of ironwork, I also like to explore the intended site and my environment for inspiration, to come up with fresh ideas when a contemporary design is more appropriate.
I can make forged ironwork in any scale – from architectural to domestic – and can work to commision or for direct sale.
I also have extensive experience of teaching and demonstrating the craft at many levels, and can offer demonstrations and bespoke short courses.
ARTESIAN METAL FABRICATION FROM GEDDING MILL
Welcome to Gedding Mill, we are an artesian fabrication company with contemporary skills and a track record of excellence spanning more than three decades.
Not your average Metalworkers
Gedding Mill Limited operates from a newly constructed, purpose-built, 5000 Sq. Ft workshop in Suffolk. We create a wide variety of metalwork for interiors, industrial, retail and domestic customers using Steel, Stainless Steel, Copper, Brass and Aluminium. We work meticulously to exact specifications and ensure we deliver the goods on time and on budget.
We have an eye for detail, with the range of skills and knowledge in the team, we can design and produce solutions for commercial projects and private clients alike.It is usual for us to work with companies that often have a very short and mission critical lead time. This is a responsibility that we take very seriously. We maintain our promises and understand its fundamental importance.
How we work
Customer service and clear communication are fundamental to our success and this goes both ways. In order to ensure we deliver exactly what our customers want, we need to be 100% clear on the brief and specification. Once this is agreed and signed off by the customer, we get to work. Our quality control is rigorous as we won’t gamble our reputation on a less than perfect product.
We have grown steadily through repeat business and recommendations and over the years our customers have tested our metal (no pun intended) by giving us more complex and unusual projects. We embrace these projects with energy and enthusiasm as we love a challenge!
Heiner Zimmermann forges art and translates traditional forms into contemporary visual aesthetics. He is an ambassador of his craft. Growing up in his father’s workshop he learned and appreciated the ancient techniques and traditions of hammer and anvil. In his work Heiner combines a traditional formal language practiced in ancient craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetic expression. Heiner is interested in modern aesthetics which include a revised use of traditional techniques and materials and this is an approach he teaches as a professor in Arts and Craft, at HDK University of Gothenburg in Sweden.
He finished his formal training in 1991 and was awarded the national “Good Design Award” (now known as “Design Prize of the Federal Republic of Germany”). Other awards followed. During his formative years, supported by several scholarships, he travelled and worked for renowned metal artists across the continent and in the United States. He then went on to do further training in the conservation of art and architectural history in Venice. After his master’s certificate in 1998 he took over his father forge in Pliezhausen, Germany.
Heiner Zimmermann’s works is always the result of a search for form, structure and surface that touch and move the viewer. His work combines a respect for the forging tradition and its material with contemporary art and design. Each work is forged through a highly individual creation process. As each unique work appears its formal development symbolizes the union of an idea, and human will, with the material – iron.
