As you design your home to fit your aesthetic, picking out the right pieces of furniture is not just about the colour, size or style but the type of wood that each item is made from can have a huge impact too.
Pine wood is a fine choice for furniture in the home and antique pine furniture can live perfectly in every room with ease.
From the aesthetic benefits to the functional characteristics of this type of wood, there are many reasons to opt for pine when decorating your living space.
Pine wood is a beautiful and distinctive type of softwood that derives from pine trees which belong to the family of trees known as conifers. These are an evergreen species of tree with needle-leaves and are most commonly found in the Northern Hemisphere.
You can easily identify pine wood because it is typically light in colour (ranging from white and yellow to deep, rich reds) and it has a prominent grain and knots that are usually darker than the wood itself.
It is a hugely popular wood within the manufacturing and carpentry industry as it has many benefits that make it a great choice for upcycled furniture.
Pine is a low-cost and sustainable wood which is always appealing when investing in furniture for the home, and it is durable which is always important when making hard-wearing furniture.
It is also easy to stain and finish so you can elevate or personalise your vintage pine furniture without much hassle.
But the most attractive feature of pine wood is that it is more understated than many other woods which gives it a neutral aesthetic that works well with most interior styles
From pine consoles and vintage coffee tables to natural bookcases and painted rocking chairs, recycled pine wood furniture can add a subtle class and elegance to this space without breaking the bank.
