About Thorn Mill

Thorn Mill is a handicraft workshop and store founded by Erdem Uygan. Erdem Uygan, whose real profession is a TV and Radio programmer, is a handicrafts enthusiast who started turning as a hobby 20 years ago and produced many products from model steam engines to model trains and accessories. He established Thorn Mill in 2021 to produce stylishly designed accessories with collectible value and to share his experiences in turnery and metalworking with those who appreciate the value of handcrafted products.


Thorn Mill products are completely handcrafted. Computer-based mass production machines are not used in production, therefore each product is produced in a certain amount and with an order. Thorn Mill products are designed by Erdem Uygan, and are produced at the end of a process that takes place in its own workshop by using universal lathe and milling machines. New products are constantly being designed and continue to be included in Thorn Mill products. Not only metal accessories, but also the leather covers and containers of these accessories are designed and produced in the same way.


Today's disposable culture and mass production technologies, besides all their advantages, have made the goods we use cheaper and worthless. That's why Thorn Mill aims to produce unique products that are handed down from generation to generation and have real value by reflecting the metalworking handicrafts on its products with the highest quality materials.
