Further product information:
Ashdown 1 Drawer Open Bedside Cabinet ASH1:The Ashdown range of fully assembled furniture from manufacturers CPW is new for 2008. This furniture exhibits many quality features - such as dovetail drawer joints - and is slightly different in that it is made from ash rather than the more familiar oak.
Ash is a native British hardwood, noted for its shock-resistant properties. When fashioned into the clean lines and simple styling of the Ashdown range it results in a contemporary collection of furniture that has a light, fresh feel about it.
It is a fully assembled range although some larger items such as beds and wardrobes may be partially dismantled to facilitate delivery.
Please note: Much of the hardwood used for furniture manufactured in Asia may be described locally as Oak. While its appearance, density and durability is almost identical to oak, sometimes this timber is actually from the Ash (Fraxinus) family. In order to be as accurate as possible, we therefore market this furniture as being made from Ash, even though the manufacturer’s packaging may say Oak.
The ashdown collection is superior quality ash furniture beautifully crafted for the ultimate in bedtime relaxation, finished in a natural lacquer.
This is a new range from CPW constructed from Solid Ash and Veneer Panels. It offers a new twist on a traditional style.
The wood is a hardwood, tough and very strong and offers high strength and resilience.
The laquer produces produces a hard, durable finish.
All joints are devetailed front and back and comes fully assembled.
Ash Furniture care tips
Ash furniture care tips include ensuring that neither hot nor wet objects are placed on ash furniture, as they can cause marks on the ash. If you should accidentally cause a heat or damp mark on your ash furniture, try rubbing the furniture’s surface gently along the grain only with some wax oak furniture polish applied to a piece of 0000 grade (very fine) wire wool. Provided that the marking is not too serious, this process should reduce or eliminate the mark and your ash furniture will be as good as new once more. It may be necessary to extend your wire wool and wax treatment to the whole surface of the ash furniture in order to even out the sheen of the finish.
Most of our Categories have Oak and Ash Sub Categories, e.g.
Oak and Ash Wardrobes.
Ash furniture finishes
Ash furniture is generally available in three types of finish. They are:
1. White or sometimes referred to as raw. Raw means that the ash furniture has no stain or topcoat – just a naturally beautiful look
2. Lacquered. The ash furniture has been stained to a colour of choice and then a clear lacquer is added. This gives the ash furniture a tougher shell which makes it far more resistant to stains, moisture and scratches. This type of finish is the easiest to maintain and clean for ash furniture. The
Devonshire New Solid Oak Dining is Lacquered
3. Waxed. Our waxed ash furniture is finished in water-based stain and real wax. Waxed ash furniture will benefit from the occasional application of solid wax furniture polish, particularly in its first few months in your home. The sheen of the surface on the ash furniture will probably increase as you apply and buff more furniture wax. Between wax applications, day-to-day ash furniture cleaning can be carried out with a dry duster. The
Devonshire Tarka Range is available in a waxed finish.
