settle by patrick turk furniture, sherwood forest Welcome to 
              Forest 2 Furniture

                                                     

Traditional handmade English furniture, with a difference.....
using storm damaged trees from Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire
we've created an exclusive and unique collection of functional Art

                                               hand tools used by patrick turk for making furniture



In 2006 Patrick Turk was presented with an opportunity to buy storm-damaged trees from a privately owned woodland within historic
Sherwood Forest

Now, 6 years on, you can follow the unique story of the journey that both he and the trees have taken to create Forest 2 Furniture; an exclusive collection of traditionally handmade English furniture using trees such as  Oak, Sweet Chestnut, Yew and Holly.

One of woodlands we buy trees from dates back to the 12th century and was once part of King John's Deer Park.  Located barely 3 miles from the legendary Major Oak and 1 mile from the historically important Parliament Oak.

Records detailing the woodland as a working wood can be traced back over several centuries with many of the trees being over 400 years old.

Unlike other companies we do not fell trees to produce our furniture.

We only use trees that have grown in Nottinghamshire and more specifically within The Dukeries.

Thanks to a co-operative management scheme between woodland owners and
Forest 2 Furniture
, we are able to produce high quality handmade furniture that truly
has the right to bear the description ‘Made in Sherwood Forest’.

                                                                                                             

                           So, how do we get from this...............


                                 ............to this?
