Dark Wood furniture

The appeal of dark wood furniture owes much to the use of tropical hardwoods such as mahogany, once considered so exotic to European tastes.  Today responsible manufacturers use only sustainable timber supplies.    

The Chennai range is contemporary styled furniture made from Sheesham wood, also known as Indian Rosewood.  Traditionally Indian Rosewood was used for fine veneers, but the Chennai range uses the timber to produce furniture with a distressed finish.   

Those wanting a period look should consider the high quality Convex range.  Although finished in a contemporary style, rather than the mirror-smoothness of original Art Deco pieces, it nevertheless would not look out of place in a thirties or forties setting – as well as gracing more modern homes.   

A more economical way to achieve a similar look is the Metro range, which offers a choice of attractive cabinets at very affordable prices.
