PD Global Butterwick living and bedroom furniture
A contemporary design of furniture, the Butterwick range follows the current vogue for simplicity and clean lines, yet still manages to achieve its own distinctive look.
This has been done with the use of raised ‘shoulders’ to all pieces, creating a sturdy, purposeful appearance. Yet limiting the use of this design feature has helped retain an attractive lightness to each item.
The Butterwick contemporary pine collection is a twin of the Boston collection but is offered in a choice of two different Right Price Furniture wax finishes. Some items may also be available in a Right Price Furniture lacquer finish, so please ask before ordering.
0402 New beginnings for Pine
The two World Wars all but obliterated Britain's established social order and, in many of the country's industrial towns, much of the furniture. In post-war Britain, everyone was going to have housing, either privately-owned or provided by the state. The dark, gloomy, buildings of the Victorian era were swept away in an urge to live in clean, light conditions. Heavily ornate Victorian furniture was out of favour and light, bright pine came into its own. Shops such as the newly-established Habitat and suppliers of Scandinavian-style furniture used pine as it was seen a light and fresh and fitted perfectly with the desire for a new style of living.
5001
French wine makers were originally opposed to the use of cork as a means of sealing wine bottles, preferring instead to use rags soaked in olive oil. Gradually however the cork became universally adopted, with the one provision being that the bottles must be stored on their sides so the wine would keep the cork moist. This prevented it shrinking and letting in air which would spoil the contents of the bottle. Since then wine racks have always been designed to store bottles laid on their sides.
