The Beauty of Solid Wood Furniture
Since the advent of sturdy, cheap plastics, some homeowners have forsaken wood furnishings in favor of cheaper plastic pieces. Yet the strength and beauty of Solid Wood Furniture retains a timeless appeal to those looking for enduring quality. So for you home-owners, furniture-lovers, Amish-enthusiasts and wood craftsmen, here are four reasons why Solid Wood Furniture will continue to thrive:
- Longevity – solid wood furniture boasts great durability and longevity. Oak, Cherry and Maple woods (the popular three furniture woods) possess a strength that—with the proper care and upkeep—enables a furnishing to mature for decades in beauty and elegance into a treasured piece, one that may even become a cherished antique for later generations. Today’s investment may become tomorrow’s treasure, a piece to pass on to later generations.
- Amish Furniture – the Amish are renown for their expert wood craftsmanship. Interested in discovering the true beauty of solid wood furniture? Keep your eye on Amish furniture. The Amish continue to raise the bar with quality craftsmanship, custom options and stunning designs that blend modern and traditional styles. In addition, many of their creations are customizable (check out the next tip for more info).
