Further product information:
Oakhampton Solid 5 Foot Bookcase:The Oakhampton range is made from solid hardwoods. Oak is used exclusively on smaller items while larger furniture features solid oak and ash attractively matched together.
Cabinets and tables are of jointed and glued construction and solid wood panelling is used for drawer bases and cabinet backs.
Drawers are made using dovetailed joints and are mounted on traditional wooden runners. Oakhampton furniture is finished in a low-gloss lacquer.
Sometimes referred to as Oakleigh, click to see the
Oakleigh Bedroom Furniture collection.
It is a fully assembled range although some larger items such as tables 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 Oakhampton Dining Room Range is made from 100% Solid ash, oak and hardwoods.
With its tough chunky construction and fully dovetailed drawers it makes it very durable.Its beautiful clear lacquer finish makes it more resistant than oiled furniture.
The Oakhampton Dining Room Range has a contemporary style to suit modern houses or small dining rooms.
The Oakhampton Sideboard is complimented well with the Oakleigh Dining Table range.
The range has a comprehensive list of items.
Furniture finishes: wooden furniture
There are two main types of furniture finish waxed and lacquered.
Waxing furniture involves coating the wooden furniture with a thin layer of the wax, such as the
Devonshire Pine Collection. The majority of people who request a wax finish for their wooden furniture are seeking the rustic furniture look, which is exactly what waxed furniture gives you!
If you are seeking a cleaner, more perfectly finished look then you should consider a lacquered finish. The
Devonshire New Solid Oak range is a popular choice for lacquered furniture.
There are emerging ranges such as the increasingly popular
Trafalgar Oak Collection that are designed to offer a specific rustic appearance. Another fine example is
The Hampshire collection which is made from reclaimed wood.
