Design and build of new vehicles
Functional sizing by use and terrain. Frame and running-gear choice, suspension, brakes, weight balance, comfort and safety extras.
Custom carriages and carts from Füzesgyarmat — since 1980.
Welcome to our workshop, where handcraft, tradition and precise workmanship meet. Every vehicle is designed to its purpose, to riding comfort and to your vision — from frame layout to lacquer, down to the last trim nail.
Brief introduction
Master blacksmith and carriage maker Sándor Galambos has worked in Füzesgyarmat since the 1980s. Today the workshop is run by Sándor’s children, who grew up by their father’s side and learned the craft from him. Our core focus is designing, building and restoring carriages; we also deliver bespoke iron- and woodwork.
Our work is recognised across the Hungarian and European driving community; clients include private customers and institutions. We provide a written warranty for structural and finishing work, with clear terms and aftercare.
What does this look like in practice?
- First, you share the intended use (ceremonial, sport, training, tourism, etc.).
- We then design the appropriate frame, running gear, suspension and braking system.
- Together we choose upholstery, lacquer tones, ornamentation and accessories.
- We craft the unique piece with ongoing consultation throughout the build.
