Wooden components
1 - Crown wheel:
Our crown wheels come with our patented wooden flashing
as well as a combination of perspex inserts and precision
made wooden framed windows that you can open and
close to allow air in. Traditional designs are painted on the
inner ring and spars of the wheel.
2 - Crown Supports:
Decorated on one side. When installed help the yurt to cope
with incredible weights or heavy snow loads. Crown
supports are unique to Mongolian yurts and help make your
yurt able to withstand virtually all weathers.
3 - Roof poles:
Cut to a uniform shape and super smooth to the touch.
Each roof pole is hand painted with designs that creates a
rhythmic affect that runs around the yurt. You will never think
of poles in the same way again.

Our door frames are slightly curved and incorporate large
windows on either side of the main door. Inside the main
door there are double doors with large windows that help
frame the view. Designs are painted on all surfaces

colour of your choice. Choose from orange, red, light blue,
dark blue, green or brown, on top of which traditional

All wall sections come pre-treated with a linseed oil based
preservative to save you the hard work of doing it yourself.
