The Timeless Appeal and Functional Style of the Pine Wardrobe

The pine wardrobe has long been a staple of homes, representing the timelessness of finely crafted furniture.  It is a blending of function and style that provides the finishing touch to a room.  Never short on appeal or on versatility, this icon of the furniture world comes in all shapes and sizes.  The pine wardrobe is an environmentally sound investment that enhances a room with its natural appeal.

When you need extra storage space and want to bring substance to a room, a large pine wardrobe is the solution.  The handcrafted wardrobe is outfitted with a myriad of storage options that allow you to hang clothing and store items in drawers and on shelves.  The pine wardrobe is sturdy and will withstand daily use.  Whatever finish is chosen, the distinctive character adds rich warmth to any room.

There is nothing that says elegance and grandeur like a pine wardrobe that is enhanced with a beautiful finish, intricate carving and decorative molding.  A centerpiece in the bedroom, the wardrobe is a definite presence.  There are so many styles and designs available.  You can choose a two-door, three-door or single door version.  They offer functional versatility, with built-in shelving and drawers.

You can enhance the look of the pine wardrobe with mirrored doors and decorative painting.  These lovely pieces of furniture look especially regal when painted white.  If you want an antique look, this can be achieved by having a distressed finish created or by applying a color glaze.  Any look you choose will make a bold statement and add character to the room.

Pine is the most widely used wood for wardrobes due to its ease of craft and affordability.  It is a fast growing species and is readily available for craftsmen of fine furniture.  This helps make this wood affordable.  Pine is chosen by furniture craftsmen and manufacturers because it machines well and is easily manipulated by hand.  It carves easily, accepts the necessary fasteners well and takes any finish beautifully.

Another important feature of pine is that it is a sustainable species that is grown responsibly for the most part.  Most forests adhere to the guidelines of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) who promote responsible management of forests worldwide by ensuring the proper harvest and replenishment of pine.  Many craftsmen and purveyors of pine wardrobes use only the wood that is FSC-certified.

The pine wardrobe makes an excellent choice when you are seeking a functional and stylish addition to a room.  When you need extra storage and are concerned about the environment, pine is the natural choice.  If creating a room that is warm and full of character is your aim, a wardrobe finely crafted from pine is the solid choice.
