Further product information:
Provence Rustic Painted Wine Bookcase:The Provence collection is the find for anyone wanting good quality shabby chic at fantastic prices. This is fully assembled furniture made throughout from Sheesham - a tough Indian hardwood.
Although this furniture is constructed to the highest standards, the manufacturer has then gone to great lengths to create that well worn and aged appearance. Expect to have areas of the surfaces with excessive varnish and overspray, giving the appearance of repairs over the years. Characteristics may include flaking paint and rough areas, cracks and surface imperfections.
This is not a perfect looking range, and neither is the finish A1. This is deliberate, so please do not purchase if you are looking for pristine furniture. The range appeals to those romantics who wish to furnish their homes in a Bohemian style.
Provence evokes the simple rustic charm of that part of south eastern France nestling between the snow-capped Alps and the warm waters of the Cote d’Azur on the Mediterranean. In a region where the important things in life are fine food, fine wines and lifelong friendships, furniture is only secondary in importance and is treated as a working tool.
The Provence range is supplied fully assembled, although larger items may be broken down into component form to facilitate delivery.
The Provence collection evokes the simple rustic charm of that part of south eastern France nestling between the snow-capped Alps and the warm waters of the Cote d’Azur on the Mediterranean. In a region where the important things in life are fine food, fine wines and lifelong friendships, furniture is only secondary in importance and is treated as a working tool. This creates a purposeful if care-worn appearance that has a charm all its own.
Provence furniture captures this essence with a solid, robust styling intended for years of hard service. Paint has been applied to all non-wearing surfaces to produce a bright appearance, but the distressed finish gives the suggestion this was some while in the past.
Made throughout of solid Sheesham, a tough Indian hardwood, the Provence range is supplied fully assembled, although larger items may be broken down into component form 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.
