Sustainable Solid Wood Furniture and Reclaimed Solid Wood Furniture Bristol, Avon, Somerset

At Green Woods Furniture you can find a wide range of high quality, new, solid wood furniture, all handmade in the UK by skilled craftsmen and designed to bring quality, design and craftsmanship into your home.

All of our wood products can be made to measure and all the sustainable wood used in our solid wood furniture is sourced from well managed forests in line with the work of the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and the reclaimed wood we use is 100% genuine and sourced from within the UK.

Much of our solid wood furniture comes from traditional, low volume makers local to our Bristol base who specialise in the use of locally sourced, sustainable wood and genuine, locally sourced, reclaimed wood.

We also source from innovative, UK based makers creating the latest in eco friendly designs, using sustainable, reclaimed, recycled and recyclable, low environmental impact materials. Materials we specialise in are Ash, Beech, Birch, Cherry, Elm, Oak, Pine (including reclaimed pine), Walnut, Yew, Organic Welsh Wool, Organic Cotton, Organic Mohair, Natural Latex (awaiting organic certification), plus recyclable polypropylene and a range of recycled materials made from discarded domestic and commercial items, including recycled household bottles, coffee cups, piping, money, etc.

We spend a great deal of time sourcing new and exciting designers and makers and consequently many of our pieces are exclusive to us - you simply won't find them elsewhere. Our designs are unique, but we work in similar materials to makers such as Indigo, Warren Evans, Eat Sleep Live, Benchmark, We Love Sleep and Greenfibres, though we believe our range of products is the best and most accessible, with a made-to-measure service available for everything that we do. If you're looking for that personal, custom made, bespoke look you've come to the right place!

We are proud to supply furniture from renowned makers such as Pinetum (Zante, Tuscan and Roman pine ranges), Abaca, the Cotswold Caners, Bean2Bed, HJ Berry, One Foot Taller, Greenfibres and Blue Marmalade, amongst others.

We only sell a high quality, natural, organic mattress range specially made for us less than 100 miles away from our Bristol showroom by Abaca, the UK's leading organic mattress manufacturer, and we have the biggest display selection of organic mattresses for a retailer in the UK. We spend up to a third of our lives sleeping, so a high quality mattress can directly improve your well being - why suffer anything less than a supportive, natural organic mattress? You may come across mattress makers calling their mattresses 'orthopaedic', especially the firmer tension ones, which can be misleading, since there has never been a recognised orthopaedic mattress. Choosing the right mattress is a very personal choice and depends on several factors, including weight, sleeping position and personal preference. Abaca are the only certified mattress maker to handmake natural, organic mattresses that are 100% (nasty) chemical free and made from a combination of natural materials, such as organic Welsh wool, organic cotton, organic mohair and natural latex (awaiting organic certification), providing a safe, toxin free environment for you and your family to sleep in. We supply several natural, organic mattress types, including three kinds of organic pocket spring mattress and two types of organic latex mattress, available in standard and bespoke sizes. We also supply a bespoke organic baby mattress range, including a cot organic baby mattress, crib organic baby mattress and a moses basket organic mattress, all tailor made ensuring a safe, natural sleeping environment for your child. Standard delivery for any natural, organic mattress is free and we also offer an express (usually next day) delivery service on selected models at an extra cost of £35. If you can't make it into our showroom, why not give us a call and we can go through your requirements over the phone. We believe that once you've tried an organic mattress and experienced the natural way to a wonderful night's sleep, you won't settle for anything less!
