Fechters: Crafting Quality

Loved for its durability, low maintenance requirements and raw, organic appeal, wood furniture is a favourite option among stylish homeowners looking to invest in a quality piece that will maintain both its value and aesthetic appeal for many years to come.

Synonymous with timeless classics, Fechters has been crafting quality wood furniture since 1936, with many of their pieces having become heirloom items over the years. Situated in Knysna, the heart of the South African indigenous timber industry, George Fechter established Fechters Furniture Manufacturers in the 1930s.

Today, Fechters offers a wide range of indoor and outdoor furniture, as well as a bespoke furniture design service.

“All our furniture is produced with care and attention to detail from only the best quality, selected timber,” says the company. “In addition, our time-honoured construction techniques assure a superior product to last for generations to come.”
