Welcome to Faraway Traders

the home of rustic, unique and practical furniture

We are based in Brisbane but we get around.

Recycled and reclaimed timbers.

We believe in letting the timber tell the story, from reclaimed wagon wheels to house flooring and fence posts the timber is dried and aged, it has it’s own story to tell and we leave it as it is. Fashioned into practical or decorative pieces. Mainly Teak and redwood. 

Plantation

We take advantage of the inert qualities of timbers like Teak, Redwood and Mango. Mainly practical pieces with strength and character. Affordability is our goal so you don’t miss out.

Carved, Unique and/or Unusual

These pieces provide affordability with great value and craftmanship. Made mainly from Acacia, a soft but heavy timber which grows quickly and is great for carving and creativity.

 

 

 

 

 Please note we support the patience and hard work of our friends in Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. Often working in hot, humid conditions with basic tools they are rewarded by your purchase and genuine enjoyment of their creations.
