It might appear that no matter what reasons are given, for and against the purchase of solid bedroom furniture the final choice is ultimately subject to the heart ruling the head. The green environmental arguments that abound, condemning the deforestation of tropical forests and habitats to provide solid wood furniture mainly for export to the West would historically discount any thought of using solid wood to furnish a bedroom. However in the recent past this moral stance has been eroded with the appearance of new sustainability programmes that can justify using solid woods in the manufacture of all types of furniture. With charities like TFT (Tropical Forest Trust) under whose auspices forest conservation is possible through sustainable management, production of solid wood furniture is becoming acceptable as non-threatening to the eco-systems and environmental habitats.

Once the moral issue of conservation and sustainability is resolved we are free to choose solid bedroom furniture from a normal, personal perspective. We might ask ourselves what are the attractions of woods such as teak, mahogany, solid oak, leather, acacia, walnut, pine, painted furniture, etc?  There are a number of considerations, for example, origins of the wood, manufacturing quality, durability, aesthetics, finish and furnishings (handles hinges etc) in actual fact the customer will opt for items that have an immediate positive visual impact and which will add decorative as well as practical value to the bedroom.

From a customer point of view the choice of solid bedroom furniture will depend on the size of the bedroom and the size of furniture best suited to furnish that space. Once this issue is resolved then type of wood, functionality, manufactured quality, styling, staining finish and furnishings can all be considered.

What are the benefits or attractions of solid bedroom furniture?

Solid woods are renowned for their durability – they will take a lot of wear and tear and basically last a lifetime. In a family environment this can be a big factor in choosing furniture. Generally solid wood jointing is normally very professional with detailed dovetail joints etc. the furnishings have to be equally good so wardrobe doors open and close with ease and drawers glide effortlessly. Aesthetically the overall look is very pleasing and attractive again depending on personal choice of particular solid wood and wood finish – stain colour (matt, gloss or egg shell finish). Solid wood lends itself to ornate detail sculpted in the wood and various stylised designs and looks are available to the purchaser. You normally find that solid wood furniture enhances the look of any bedroom and creates an exotic feel of foreign richness. It adds comfort and style to the home and sits well in classic or contemporary interiors offering elegant modern curves, strong lines and generous proportions. It exudes class and sophistication.
