3. Do you have a catalogue? 

No, we do not have a catalogue. Because we have many differnt styles of furniture, each introducing new products at various times, posting new products on our website is the best way to stay current with the products we feature. 

4. What is meant by Real Wood?

According to the Unfinished Furniture Association, Real Wood furniture is defined as furniture made of all natural wood or plywood, except unexposed backs and drawer bottoms that may contain fiberboard and does not contain particle board.  What is meant by solid wood?  Solid wood components of a piece of furniture consist of wooden boards glued together on edge to form a panel.  Solid wood components can always be identified by finding the end grain at the end of the board in contrast to plywood or pressboard panels that have veneer covering the exposed edges.

5. What is Veneer?

Veneer is a thin layer of attractive wood glued to a substrate, usually a secondary grade of wood, plywood or hardboard.  A veneered panel is considered more stable than a solid wood panel of the same wood and is less expensive.  Veneer can also be cut into decorative patterns and applied to solid surface and is called Marquetry.
 

6.When is plywood a good idea?

Plywood is a good idea anywhere a solid and strong panel is needed such as the sides of desks, entertainment centers and for bookcase shelves that are prone to warping.
