About Us

Once upon a time there was a Mum, Zandra Johnson, who was also a Kidult - because she never really grew up. She thought it was such a shame that children's furniture, especially children's chairs and children's rocking chairs should always be copies of grown up's chairs.

Children love their own special things and children love stories, so this Kidult Mum put the two together and makes chairs especially for children to have fun with and writes a story book to go with every toddler chair.

Childhood is such a precious time. She loves the way children think and play and move and their unique comments on life and experiences and their breathtakingly simple analysis of events. Most of all she loves watching them play.

As a Mum she is also very aware of how active and accident prone children can be so safety is paramount in the design of all her chairs. So, wearing her Serious And Grown Up Hat, she promises that :-

the fairytale family

 

Safety

So that your children can rock in safety, all our rocking chairs have passed BSEN 1022 for stability.

All finishes used from the first base coat to the final scratch proof coating comply with EN 71 iii which means that if your child really wants to chew the furniture, whilst it might harm the chairs, it won’t harm your child, and the silky, tactile surface is easy to wipe clean as well..

Ethics

When you buy our products you can be assured that our belief in ethical sourcing means that all our children‘s chairs and toys are made by adults working in a safe environment and receiving a fair wage.

The Planet

FairyTale Children’s Furniture® uses FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) products to preserve the world’s precious trees and we use water based varnishes and pigments which contain no heavy metals, are safe for children and kind to the planet. This means that whether you buy a blue chair, a pink chair, a yellow chair or a green chair they are all "Green".

Watching children play is a beautiful thing, especially when they play in their imagination. So FairyTale Furniture Ltd always designs...

.... "for children, with love"........
