We're trying to find the whereabouts of the woodman/carpenter who makes distressed looking pine furniture. It feels rough to the touch and is like the Ottoman style. We spotted the furniture when looking around a villa for sale in Hisaronu.We didn't buy the villa but loved the furniture! We believe he has a catalogue and works somewhere in Fethiye. Could anyone out there help us out?

Hi
I'm going to Fethiye the 2nd week in Feb to source items for a villa due for completion in May. This distressed furniture sounds like just what I'm looking for - what sort of items do these guys make and what sort of delivery times are we talking. Also does anyone know where I can get hold of leather covered dining chairs and sofas in the Fethiye region please?

We got our bedroom and lounge furniture from a carpenter in the Fethiye Sanayi who have a guy who speaks perfect English. They make to a very high quality (we think so anyway!!) and we were very happy with what we paid.
They will also pick you up and drop you back at home.
Match that MFI!!!!!!

Think we used the same guy for our furniture for our villa in Uzumlu. Factory is very difficult to find but Pete, the salesman, picked us up at our hotel and we spent the whole afternoon at the factory at Fethiye designing our furniture. We chose chestnut wood throughout and everything was made to measure, and we are sooooo pleased with what we finished up with.
It was nice to speak with someone English who understood what we wanted and who could translate for us.
The furniture was delivered exactly on time and was perfect. Thanks youla
