Saf Fakir Biography – Saf Fakir Wiki
Saf Fakir, born Sarfraz Hussein Fakir, is a furniture designer and maker. He is best known for his television appearances as an expert on BBC’s The Travelling Auctioneers, BBC Two’s Jay’s Yorkshire Workshop, as well as Quest’s The Woodland Workshop, and Kings of the Wood.
Saf was a mentor on BBC Two’s Jay’s Yorkshire Workshop, presented by The Repair Shop’s Jay Blades and filmed in Little Germany in 2021. In 2022, he was one of the experts on Quest’s Kings of the Wood. The programme follows Saf and other members of a group of highly-skilled woodworkers, carpenters and cabinet makers, known as ‘Kings’, who have joined forces to create unique and beautiful items of furniture for worthy recipients.
In each episode, three members of the public are welcomed into the woodland workshop, where they tell the story of a friend, neighbour or relative who they feel are deserving of a gift, each expertly hand-crafted out of wood. The experts get to work, showcasing all the skills of their craft, as they bring their stunning creations to life. A few days later, the visitors return to the woodland, this time with their friend or relative in tow, to see the newly-crafted item unveiled.
In 2023, Saf was one of eight experts on Quest’s The Woodland Workshop. The first series, then known as Kings of the Wood, was screened in 2022 and ran for an initial eight series.
