When buying your yurt be sure to realise the significant differences in what is being offered. Authentic look, inclusion of the
special features that give our yurts a
signifcant advantage, quality materials, lasting craftsmanship and attention to detail are what make our yurt exceptional value.
Because our aim is to make high quality and beautiful yurts we choose the best materials for the job. The woods we choose are selected from the best on offer; oak, chestnut and pine form the structural components with no expense spared.
Oak is used for the crown as it exceptionally strong and resistant to the elements. The beautiful strong, yet light chestnut means the frame is exceptionally strong and attractive. Pine door frames are sturdy and secure. This combination provides an exceptional yurt frame.
Walls
The Yurt walls come in collapsible sections that tie together with the traditional black ties. Made from sweet chestnut stripped and steam bent to give the characteristic gentle curve and are tied together to form the trellis. The chestnut is oiled to finish. Our walls are exceptionally strong and ties tight to give a resultant strong Yurt.
Roof Poles
Above the trellis the long chestnut roof poles join at the crown. Each end is shaped to fit the mortise in the crown and the other hand has a bridle to slide over the han tops.
Oak Crown
Made from solid oak the crown is made with the traditional 8 spoke Mongol design. The outer ring contains the mortices for the uni to attach to it. Each crown is lovingly prepared, finished in oil or painted and it is the crowning glory of the yurt.
Yurt Door Frame
The sturdy door frame is made from quality pine to give strength to the structure. Each door frame has no less than 9 hand made steel rings to attach the various ropes necessary for a real ger. Most of our customers ask for a wooden door to fit this frame.
Bagana
With the 16, 18 and 21 foot ger we supply as standard the bagana. Two long poles that attache to the crown. The bagana are there to support the crown and enable it to be pitched with ease. If required we can supply these with the smaller ger.
Whatever cover you choose the frame is the same high quality as described above.
