Constructed with solid cherry and walnut wood: Solid wood truly is beauty that lasts a lifetime. Solid hardwood means the grain of the lumber will carry through the core; it has not been engineered or glued. Engineered wood products are manufactured by binding together veneers, wood strands or fibers with toxic glues or adhesives to form a composite material. The look and feel of wood furniture is superior compared to most other types of modern furniture.
Experienced Craftsman: Traditional craftsmanship and quality are evident in so many ways down to mortise and tenon joinery in these hand-made, hand-sanded beds with hand-rubbed oil finish
Lasts a lifetime: Made of beautiful high-quality solid wood enhanced by unbroken lines; craftsman style furniture with solid wooden frames
Natural Beauty: Oil finish develops a patina and depth of color unavailable with a lacquer finish
Environmentally Friendly Finishes: There are two types of finishes available: A standard linseed oil finish or for a small upcharge a natural AFM penetrating oil finish. There is no difference with the look of the wood with either finish.
Hand-rubbed linseed oil finish: is boiled linseed oil thinned with odorless mineral spirits. While raw linseed oil is natural, the "boiling" process requires the addition of small traces of chemical driers. However it is less toxic to you and the environment, as compared to other finishes such as lacquer, since the process produces no emissions to pollute the air.
AFM Natural Penetrating Oil Finish: is an organic plant-based premium penetrating oil for new and old unfinished woods. This finish contains no solvents or toxic ingredients such as harmful preservatives, dryers or other irritants that can contribute to poor indoor air quality or negative health consequences.
Please note that every species of wood is unique and will react differently to a natural product. For example, soft or porous woods such as pine, alder, birch, fir, cedar and redwood may absorb oil unevenly; some woods may contain tannins and other extractives that will bleed through to the surface and affect appearance. The AFM oil finish is a clear finish, almost shellac and will differ in results when applied. For example, cherry wood without an AFM finish will appear darker and deepen in color with time. However, this will not occur so much with the application of the AFM Natural oil finish.
New England Wood elegant bedroom furniture sets are bench-crafted with the caring techniques of experienced craftsmen and the greatest attention to quality control. This begins with the careful selection of wood that matches in color and grain.
These beds are securely joined together with mortise and tenon joints to gain the superior strength and flexibility of movement allowed when one block of wood is inserted into another. All pieces are made with classic, high quality, solid cherry and walnut hardwood, sanded smooth and hand rubbed with either an AFM Natural Penetrating oil or linseed oil finish.
Complete instructions along with ongoing care are provided with the furniture at time of purchase. It is suggested that you avoid tung oil and do not use furniture polish, dusting sprays that include a polish, or any wax. Shortly after the piece is placed in your home, re-oiling is recommended, and periodically after that.
Avoid sudden changes in humidity that would be caused by placing your furniture near a direct heat source. Also, there are variations in the color and darkening of individual pieces of wood and no guarantee they will match perfectly as they age. However, this does not affect the overall soundness and beauty of the hand made piece of furniture.
Please understand the limitations of wood and enjoy the process as it breathes along with you.
