Forest + Fauna

Forest + Fauna is a collection of fun, sustainable, and artfully handcrafted wood products that are created using the most earth-friendly materials and techniques. It’s a perfect combination of modern design and technology with timeless craftsmanship.

Michelle duQuesnay is a sculptor, woodworker, and photographer and the artist behind Forest + Fauna. 

Her range of work includes pieces that are decorative, functional, semi-functional and wearable. 

Michelle is passionate about creating thoughtfully with the planet and future generations in mind, having fun along the way, and learning everything and anything she can.

Whether foraged, reclaimed, or purchased, Michelle uses non-threatened native tree species to help promote awareness of local forests. Michelle is currently working primarily with salvaged ash that has been devastated by the invasive Emerald Ash Beetle. Wood finishes are truly all-natural, free from plastics or petroleum by-products, making Forest + Fauna products ecologically sustainable.

Forest + Fauna is an Ontario Wood Partner. Forest + Fauna gives back to Canadian wildlife and lands with every purchase.
