Meet The Maker

Every Thorn Mill creation begins in a small workshop in İznik. Designed, machined and hand-finished by Erdem Uygan, each piece is made one at a time—without kits, mass production or shortcuts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which currency will I be charged in?

Prices may be shown in your local currency for reference, but your order is charged in Turkish lira (TRY) at checkout. You do not need a TRY account: any international credit or debit card works, and your bank converts the amount at its own rate, which may include a small fee.

When will my order be shipped?

Every piece is made and finished by hand in our İznik workshop. Orders ship within 7–10 business days.

How long is the delivery time?

After dispatch: usually 7–14 days to the US, Europe and the UK (often about a week), 10–20 business days to Australia, Canada and elsewhere, and 2–5 days within Türkiye. Orders over ₺10,000 (≈ $200) ship free to the US (duties and import taxes prepaid), Australia and Canada.

Do your products come with a warranty?

Yes. As Thorn Mill products are handcrafted, we stand behind each piece. During the 2-year warranty period, repairs or replacement parts for manufacturing-related issues are provided free of charge. After that, our Lifetime Service continues to support your piece.

Can I return my order?

You have the right to withdraw within 14 days from the date of receipt. The product must be unused and undamaged.

Collapsible content

Is personalization possible for your products?

Yes. For many of our products, we can offer custom laser engraving and special material options upon request. You can contact us after or before completing your order.

Why don't you use coatings or paint?

Because natural brass, copper, and titanium develop their own patina over time. Thus, each product acquires a unique identity specific to its owner. You can find care instructions in the user manuals for our products.

What should I do if my order is delayed?

In the rare event of delays, you will be informed via email. Additionally, a shipping tracking number will be shared for each order.
