Of the many qualities that make Amish furniture so special, the greatest quality is also the most simple: solid wood construction. Solid wood furniture possesses great beauty and durability. In the case of Amish-crafted furniture, indigenous hardwoods, such as Indiana cherry or oak, ensure that the finest wood is being used.
When searching for a furniture piece, ask the builder whether it is constructed of solid wood. Sometimes plywood backing, while cutting down on cost, can diminish the durability of a particular furnishing. Also, ask about the construction methods: were nails or screws used, or was it constructed with dovetailed joints and glue?
Due to its durability and beauty, solid wood furniture is worth the investment. Search for the piece that’s right for you and cherish it for many years.
