Wood has always been valued as a material, whether in fashion, automotive or furniture industry. The great advantages of this material are the numerous possibilities of its processing and thus achievement of different visual effects. The natural look is a common feature of all wood.
What deserves to be called “solid wood furniture”? Wooden furniture can be described as solid wood furniture if all parts, except the back and bottom of drawers are made entirely of one type of wood, not veneer.
Solid wood retains the natural properties of wood, i.e. it does not retain static charge. Wood has a natural tendency to receive or release moisture through the open pores. This is very important for the ambient conditions. If there is high humidity in the environment (e.g. in summer or in new buildings), wood furniture will absorb the moisture. This causes the wood to expand and enlarge. At low ambient humidity (e.g. in heated rooms during winter) wood loses moisture and shrinks. Therefore, the porosity of solid wood is in a way a regulator of room humidity.
For quality solid wood furniture, it is necessary to secure the optimal humidity (between 45 and 55%). After buying new wood furniture it is recommended to leave the doors and drawers open during the first few days to prevent the wood from shrinking or expanding. In new buildings it is advisable to initially put the furniture at least 1 cm from the wall.
Solid wood furniture is sensitive to sunlight. In particular, UV radiation from the sun can change the color of the wood. These changes will give the character to the furniture. To preserve the natural beauty of furniture, regular maintenance of all the surfaces is necessary, and the manufacturer will provide you with the detailed instructions.
The natural colors of different types of wood enhance the visual effect, as well as additional effects of staining and varnishing of wooden furniture. The range of colors from light gray to dark brown will satisfy the needs of every customer. This furniture is unique because the arrangement of tree rings is such that it can not be repeated. Wooden furniture is very warm and pleasant to the touch, and with various surface treatments we can achieve different effects of individual pieces of furniture.
Whether it is from a native species such as oak, beech, walnut and cherry or exotic species, wooden furniture is classified as a timeless classic.
People who choose solid wood furniture are true lovers of nature and its resources, with an established attitude about quality and durability. This furniture is robust and durable and over the years the space it inhabits will only require smaller corrective measures related to the color of the walls and decorative fabrics.
