'Gefertigt' is the past participle of the verb 'fertigen' (to manufacture). It is very often used like an adjective to describe a noun, or in passive sentences with 'werden' (to be / to become).
Das ist ein in Handarbeit gefertigtes Schmuckstück.
This is a piece of jewelry crafted by hand.
This word is often used in a more formal context. It emphasizes the quality of the manufacturing or the craftsmanship behind a product.

The frame of the picture is made from solid oak.
'Gefertigt' is very often combined with the preposition 'aus' (from / out of) to name the material from which something was made.

manufactured / restored
'hergestellt' and 'gefertigt' can both describe that a product has been made or produced. In many sentences, they can be used in similar ways. 'Hergestellt' sounds neutral and fits many products, including things from factories. 'Gefertigt' often sounds a bit more precise or higher-quality and fits well with craftsmanship, special materials, or careful work. If the important point is simply where or how something was produced, 'hergestellt' is very natural. If the type of work or the quality is being emphasized, 'gefertigt' fits well.
