DFP Oakhampton Ash Bedroom Range
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.
Oakhampton is sometimes referred to as Oakleigh, click to the
Oakleigh Bedroom Collection.
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.
0801 When is Ash Oak?
Oak furniture has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity during recent years and this has been due partly to a move away from dark colours to more natural, lighter, finishes and partly due to new supplies of oak timber being sourced from places such as North America, China and the Far East.
These new supplies are not inexhaustible, so alternative timbers have been considered, one of these is ash.
In fact, due to their similar appearance, some of the furniture from China has in recent years been sold as oak because this is its local name, even though it is actually from the Fraxinus or ash family of trees.
