Veneer Furniture Versus Hardwood Furniture

Wood veneer is thin slices of wood that are glued onto panels to make parts of furniture.

Wood veneer is created by peeling a tree trunk or by slicing big rectangular blocks of wood. You will notice that veneer has a wood-like appearance. The wood-like appearance comes from the growth rings of a tree.

Wood veneer does not hold up as well as hard wood. Therefore, wood veneer furniture pieces are a lot cheaper. You can definitely tell when a piece of furniture is veneer versus real hard wood.

For instance, this photo displays what a veneer entertainment center looks like:


Now you can compare a hardwood Amish made entertainment center:



You can definitely see the difference. The hardwood Amish made entertainment center is a lot more sturdy as well as classy. Amish made furniture has a much more rich and warm look. Your furniture pieces will last longer when you buy hardwood as thick, beautiful, hand selected hardwood is only used on all of the Amish made furniture pieces.

Your Amish furniture will be passed down from generations to generations as each piece will become a family heirloom. Wood veneer will dent and fall apart much more easily. Rarely is veneer wood furniture passed down from generation to generation. If you are lucky a piece of veneer furniture will last long enough to pass down to one person in your family although the odds of this happening are not very good.

Invest in beautifully handcrafted Amish furniture the first time to get your money’s worth as well as everlasting beauty.
