Why Buy Unfinished Furniture?

Quality

At Derbyshire’s Unpainted Furniture you won’t find an ounce of inferior presswood or particle board! All of our furniture is made of well-constructed solid wood.  Much of the “wood” furniture you find elsewhere is made of veneered particle board and presswood.  Be a smart consumer!  Solid wood will last a lifetime, expanding and contracting with weather and temperature changes.  This natural flexibility of the wood causes no changes in the structural integrity of your furniture.  On the other hand, furniture made with even a little particle board or fiberboard will quickly fall apart because it is unable to expand and contract as needed, causing joints to separate, warping and breaking.  Screws, staples and nails will just pullout.   Solid wood can also be repaired, sanded and refinished if necessary!

Product Knowledge

Unfinished furniture manufacturers must use a higher grade of lumber because they can't “hide” defects, discoloration, and other imperfections under cover!   You will see exactly what you're buying! Derbyshire’s staff can help you understand the qualities of all the different wood species that they carry and help you find the right wood for your home.  

 

Value

With unfinished furniture your money buys the best value available!  You can purchase quality, solid wood furniture for a fraction of what you'd pay in a finished furniture store.   Even when taking advantage of our custom finishing service, you'll still realize tremendous savings.   You'll have exactly the beautiful piece of furniture you wanted without having to compromise on style, color, wood type or size!   Unfinished solid wood is solid value!

Flexibility

With unfinished furniture you can choose a color to match your décor, a style to match your home, the wood species of your choice and the size to fit your space!   You can match existing furniture in your home and you can add pieces later and match the finish exactly!   Also, at Derbyshire’s you're not locked into “sets” that we choose. You match the chairs to the table or desk that you like, you match the headboard with the chests and dressers you like, etc. The flexibility of unfinished furniture is limitless!

Fun

Furniture finishing is a fun and rewarding hobby!   It's so surprisingly easy to do!   Derbyshire’s carries a full line of quality, user-friendly finishing products and our staff will gladly explain the simple steps to creating a beautiful, finished piece of furniture   You'll enjoy a tremendous sense of pride and accomplishment and be amazed at how easy it was to create your masterpiece.  Your friends and family won’t believe your great talent! (Remember though, if you're not a do-it-yourselfer, or just don’t have the time, our expert finishers can do it for you!)
