All the cheaper outlets in the U.K. have this Furniture, it's bargain prices,  but I don't remember seeing any in the Fethiye area.  I just wonder would the Turkish authorities allow it to be sold in Turkey?  It would do Turkish furniture manufacturers a lot of harm, they could never compete.

Never seen it in Fethiye. I used to sell it in the UK and it was very cheap there but with import duties in Turkey it would be very expensive. My guess would be it would be available in Istanbul if anywhere.

I am not sure if it is the same furniture, but there's a shop in Fethiye, Karagozler Mah, in the Paspatur that does furniture that might be what you are looking for.  It is called Unique and it is just round the corner to what was called Cafe Uno and is now called Blue Cafe (I think).  The owner is called Cem and he can speak very good English.  Tel 0252 612 95 15

I would suggest you would be better off getting a carpenter in to do something for you. The stuff in Unique is beautiful and it is definitely of the style but gosh EXPENSIVE.

Or you could try the new secondhand shop in Fethiye.  I saw it advertised in the local English printed free papers.
