The Whimsical Mushroom Fairy Chair is a hand-carved outdoor storytelling throne where toadstools, butterfly wings, and fairy magic come to life in solid timber.
Mushroom caps cluster at the base, delicate butterfly wings fan out from the sides, and fairy motifs dance across every surface — all carved by hand in our Mid Wales workshop. This is the chair that makes children believe the fairies really did leave something behind.
The solid hand-built joinery means it's as strong as it is enchanting — a piece of garden magic that lasts a lifetime.

Your Version
Every Mushroom Fairy Chair is made to order and entirely bespoke. You can add a name, a favourite fairy character, extra creatures, or a phrase carved into the wood. We've added everything from glowworms to pixie doors — if you can imagine it, we can carve it.
Typical lead time is 4–5 weeks, though we're flexible if you have a specific date in mind. Prices include VAT. Schools can order by purchase order and pay on invoice — no upfront payment required. If your school needs to register us as a supplier, we can provide our VAT number, bank details, and address on request.

Finish
This piece is supplied unvarnished as standard. Left natural, solid timber slowly weathers to a soft, silvery-grey — completely normal for outdoor timber, a graceful way for a piece to age, and with no maintenance needed. If you’d prefer to bring out the grain and warm, honeyed tones, choose the varnished option (+£50) and we’ll hand-apply three coats of Epifanes, a premium marine yacht varnish.
More about the two finishes
Outdoor furniture takes a real beating from sun and weather. Left natural, an unvarnished piece simply silvers over time and asks nothing of you. A varnished piece keeps its rich sheen for a couple of years; after that the varnish may begin to flake or patch, at which point you can simply re-coat it, or let it weather back to that natural silvery-grey. Either way, your timber is fine.
