Advantages and disadvantages of natural wood

Regardless of the interior style, furniture made of array of wood will always be appropriate both externally and in operational properties. The main advantages of wooden furniture include:

• environmental friendliness, commenting on this advantage does not make sense
• aesthetic attractiveness does not depend on the tree of the tree, each of them is unique
• Universality, wood furniture is used even in such ultramodern styles as minimalism and hi-tech



Modern furniture set in the living room

• maintainability, any of the parts, if necessary, can be replaced
• prestige; The price of wooden furniture is higher than modern analogues from chipboard and MDF, which indicates the abundance of owners
• Individuality – the wood structure is unique, because each product, even massively made, has its own unique pattern.

Perfect furniture combination: wood and skin

The disadvantages of wooden furniture include the flammability of the material, instability to moisture (although modern wood impregnations partly leave this minus), the susceptibility of rot and attacks of insects. Furniture from an array of wood is quite heavy, does not respond well to the effects of ultraviolet radiation and refers to a high price segment, even when using budget wood species.

Wood of wood and their characteristics in the production of furniture

A moraine oak, as well as furniture with the effect of aging, looks gorgeous. Oak sets are chosen for classic interiors with a royal slope (Baroque, Empire, etc.). Oak furniture is appropriate in all rooms of the house or apartment, including the bathroom.

The disadvantages include the thorough weight of the products and the high cost.

Mahogany

One of the expensive wood species, with an incredible reddish tint, is characterized by durability. Old pieces of red wood furniture that have survived to this day are appreciated among antiques. There is even a profession – a red farmer. Thick wood is “not interesting” to the brown beetles, does not rot, does not change properties under the influence of different temperatures.

Red -wood

Red wood furniture harmoniously complements classic interiors in the style of Rococo, Empire, English and Eastern. The only negative is the price that only wealthy people can afford such furniture.

Hornbeam

Extremely solid grab wood is beautiful and unique, it is difficult to confuse with other breeds. But due to high hardness, it is practically not used in furniture production, as it is difficult to process. Grab products withstand critical masses, do not crumble, do not scratch, but vulnerable to moisture. The drying technology and the difficulty of processing turns grab furniture into expensive pleasure.

Birch

The phrase “Karelian birch” is for many, as it has become a synonym for the expensive furniture. Birch wood is distinguished by plasticity and suppleness during processing, but at the same time characterized by high hardness, which allows the exploration of products for decades. It is the Karelian birch that gives a unique drawing from wavy annual rings with dark interspersed on the cut. Furniture from an array of birch is easily recognizable in a pleasant golden hue.

The advantages of birch furniture include:

• resistance to high mechanical loads
• environmental friendliness and hypoallergenicity, which is especially relevant in the children’s

The disadvantages of furniture from ash include:

• susceptibility to water
• Light weight
• vulnerable to bugs and bacteria
• High price.

The creation of a beneficial aura and protection from adversity is attributed to ash.

Beech

Hard wood, which is not inferior in strength to the oak, is cheaper. Book is resistant to wear, because in addition to furniture, stairs are made from it. The positive aspects of the beech array include durability, high aesthetics and plasticity. The beech board carries positive energy and often serves as a material for the manufacture of furniture in the office.

When processing steam, the beech becomes extremely plastic. Famous Viennese chairs are created from it, characterized by strength and grace. But at the same time, the beech is unstable to moisture and mold.

Maple

Furniture from the maple of maple is strong and beautiful. The color of wood is almost white, and therefore is actively used in small rooms in light colors.

The strength of the array of larch is comparable to oak, but the price is less. The larch is resistant to moisture, therefore it does not mold, does not rot, is resistant to temperature changes and today is actively used in the decoration of baths and saunas. Previously, the larch was harvested for shipbuilding. The larch is from other species of wood of wood.

Provided to comply with the processing technology of larch furniture for a long time will delight both an attractive look and high operational qualities. A special charm from larch furniture gives a thin coniferous aroma that creates a healthy microclimate in the room.
