The Advantages Of Handmade Wood Furniture

By Jeffrey Stone


Furniture is not what it used to be in the old days when solid wood was handcrafted to create them. This has been caused by the increased demand for fittings leading to the development of cheaper ways of producing them. These new ways of creating furniture involve the use of manufactured wood and machines making fittings. This increases the production level to meet the demand. This article will discuss the benefits of handmade wood furniture.

There is guaranteed durability when one buys handcrafted solid timber furnishes unlike industry made furnishings. This is because many industries' main aim is to maximize their profits and not the quality of furnishings they produce. Thus, their furniture is made from low quality weak manufactured timber that is not designed to last for long. Handcrafted fittings are very strong and can last to be passed down to generations.

Solid handcrafted lumber fittings are cheaper than manufactured fittings in the long run. The cost of often replacement of fixtures because of wearing-off ends up outwitting the cost of obtaining handcrafted fixtures which are more costly to buy. Furnishings made of solid wood are lifetime investments that are among the valuable items people value the most because they are very cheap to maintain.

Another important gain of using handcrafted solid timber fittings is that they can be customized to fit the clients' designs. This is very important because it creates uniqueness and gives clients exactly what they require. Manufactured fittings on the other hand usually have a specific design with differentiated color and patterns used. This increases the probability of finding the same type of furnishes in different places.

Another important gain accrued from using handcrafted solid timber furnishes is the fact that they are biodegradable and friendly to the environment. Often replacement of furniture leads to a pile of non-recyclable and worn out furnishes regarded as waste that occupies a lot of space. In the event that solid timber furnishes wear out, materials used in their making can be reused to serve other purposes.

The use of handcrafted furniture promotes the flow of income and resources within a society. Many solid timber furnishings are made by local artisans within the society thus money paid for furnishes remains within the society. This is a good way to support local industries and the community at large. In addition, cost of transporting furnishes is greatly reduced because the distance to clients' homes is not very far.

Handcrafted solid timber fittings require minimal energy in making them. Manufactured fittings require a lot of energy from either coal, nuclear or natural gas to produce. This is a very important benefit because the amount of energy required making handcrafted furnishings is very minimal and friendly to the environment. It does not involve emission of any harmful gases to the environment.

The art of craftsmanship is promoted through the sale of handcrafted solid timber furniture. This improves skills of artisans through exposure to clients' different designs throughout time making a class of skilled craftsmanship within a society. This builds a tradition of craftsmanship that is passed through to generations as a heritage and pride of the society. Manufactured furnishings contribute to dwindling craftsmanship.
