Wooden furniture is always a popular choice in the home. Favoured for its durability, versatility and characteristic warmth, wood furniture is a great investment for the future. With a huge range of timbers to choose from, it can be difficult to know whether to go for oak, beech, mahogany, ash, Indian sheesham….the list goes on. This short article takes a look at why pinewood furniture is an excellent choice for your home, with some great examples of beautiful pine furniture available at Furniture Shop UK.
Pine furniture is extremely versatile when furnishing your home. As you can see from the lovely Seconique Corona Pine 2 Door Bookcase, pictured above, the wood has a pale, neutral colouring. This means that pinewood furniture works well in any room, no matter what the colour of the carpet or decor. You can update your furniture without having to completely redecorate a room. Pine furniture is great because it matches easily with other pale wooden furniture too.
Pine wood is often used when it comes to create unique and special furniture products. This is because one of its characteristics is a soft surface that makes it an excellent choice when it comes to crafting and working with the wood. The waxed and carefully detail painted Wooden Rocking Horse, shown here, is a beautiful example of the kind of items that can be manufactured from pine.
Pine is pretty good for painting too. Whether you go for a solid paint covering or distressed effect, as you can see with the Etienne Large Glazed Display here, you’re sure to be onto a winner. Whether you go for painted pine, lacquered pine or waxed pine, pinewood furniture is an excellent choice. Although, as I mentioned above, it is soft enough to carve delicately, it is also very sturdy and robust when it comes to doing its job.
My final advantage when it comes to pine furniture has to be cost. With pine timber grown and manufactured in abundance throughout Europe, pine wood furniture is extremely affordable. While you still get a great quality product, pine furniture won’t break the bank. For example, at £99 the Lincoln Pine Bunk Beds are an absolute bargain!
