Wood Type
When looking at wood furniture, it is essential to know that not all styles are created equal. Some wood fixtures are smooth and finished, whereas others have a tough or bumpy exterior with a more natural look.
Be sure to consider the room you are looking to add wood furniture to and what you want the overall look to be. Most furnishings are from oak, maple, cherry, hickory, walnut, and elm but can come in other wood varieties as well.
Colors
The natural color of the wood will depend on the type that you choose. However, you can also stain them to match items in your home. When you are searching for new items for a room, take into consideration whether you want to have a solid wood look in its natural finish or if you want to select a stain that complements the rest of your home.
Many furniture selections will come with different color options, so don’t feel like you are limited to what you see in the picture. Additionally, company representatives are always willing to help design the perfect room and find furniture to match.
Construction Quality
Not all wood furniture has the same construction method. Therefore, some items may hold up longer than others. It is vital to not only know what kind of wood you are working with but also how the manufacturer made it.
An easy way to tell if the furniture is high quality is to look for evidence of glue or staples. Well-made wooden furniture will be pieced together with interlocking sides, as well as screws and dowels. You will not see glue residue or staples in furnishings made with quality in mind.
