Solid Wood Kitchens and Solid Wood Furniture

Rick Forward, sole proprietor of ‘New from Old’, handcrafts solid wood kitchens and solid wood furniture that are made to last. All his furniture is made from either reclaimed pine or new FSC hardwoods which results in environmentally friendly kitchens and furniture. He handcrafts household furniture from bedroom furniture to living and dining furniture.

Reclaimed Pine Kitchen Furniture
As a major contribution to conservation New from Old regularly uses reclaimed pine timbers, particularly reclaimed pine. These old timbers will result in a piece of furniture displaying all the charm of antiquity when polished and waxed, yet is made to measure your specific requirements.

The new hardwoods we use all carry the Forest Stewardship Council certification, and include oak, beech, elm, ash, maple, cherry, to name a few. Many of these hardwoods have striking and variable grain which we incorporate into the design of the furniture, playing on the beauty of the natural wood.

FSC Hardwoods
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) allows consumers to purchase all kinds of forest products with the confidence that you are not contributing to global forest destruction. FSC certified forests are managed to ensure long term timber supplies while protecting the environment and the lives of forest-dependent people. Thus owning FSC hardwood furniture and solid wood kitchen units ensures that you are helping to contribute to the upkeep of our planet’s resources while enjoying beautifully crafted household furniture.
