Further product information:
Hampshire 5 Drawer Chest:The Hampshire ranges of reclaimed pine furniture bear a strong resemblance to furniture widely available during the late 19th and early to mid-20th Centuries. Detailing touches, such as the ceramic handles and ceramic inlays, reinforce this late Victorian feel. Distressed detailing of the wood, including some marking and fillet inlays, adds age and completes the look.
Despite the reclaimed appearance, Hampshire furniture is strongly constructed of solid pine. The wood is stained a dark honey/light treacle colour and finished with a lacquer coating. The ceramic handles and inlays are white with patterning that ranges in hue from a subtle lilac to royal blue.
This is a fully assembled range although some larger items such as beds and wardrobes may be partially dismantled to facilitate delivery.

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.
Chests of drawers
Chests of drawers from rightpricefurniture are of the highest quality and are made from solid wood. Wooden furniture will expand and contract within its environment, and as back and chest of drawer bases are made from interlocking wooden boards, these may show some shrinkage as the wooden furniture ages. This is quite normal, particularly in centrally heated homes. You can care for your chest of drawers by ensuring it’s placed away from direct heat sources (such as radiators).
To combat this contraction and expansion some of the higher end furniture manufactures offer tongue and groove bases, examples include
Devonshire Tarka Pine Furniture and the
Badger Pine Collections.
