About Us
OUR STORY
The Urban Settler is a family owned company founded in 1998 in North Vancouver, British Columbia. Our few first years in business were spent sourcing, restoring and reviving antique furniture as well as architectural pieces. Our business was focused on reclaiming wood and other vintage building materials that could be re-purposed into unique home décor and furnishings. As demand for local and sustainable products grew, The Urban Settler evolved into a leading producer and source for reclaimed wood furniture, reclaimed wood flooring, feature wall cladding, and reclaimed wood millwork. Now settled in Fernie, British Columbia, our service offering has expanded to include unique home furnishings and a full complement of interior design services.
OUR STORE
Our Flagship retail store is located in the historic Livery Building, which was built in 1908 using stones picked from the bank of the majestic Elk River. The building is truly part of Fernie’s history and community and is the perfect home for The Urban Settler.
Our store focuses on home furnishings, decor, and interior design services. We feature our own handcrafted reclaimed wood and custom solid wood furniture, including custom reclaimed wood dining tables.
To complement our handcrafted wood furniture, we have procured a selection of quality furnishings and décor accessories to complete your home: Canadian made sofas, sectionals, and upholstered chairs, upholstered beds and headboards, dining chairs, bar stools, blankets, throws, accent pillows, rugs, blinds and window coverings, bedding, and mattresses, all offered with friendly small town service, and helpful interior design and decorating advice.
