    Amish Furniture - Art you live with!

    by David Keam

    Amish-made furniture is known for its quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and durability.

    The Amish are a hard-working group that follows a traditional way of life, which includes using hand tools and techniques passed down through generations to make the very best furniture money can buy. This approach results in pieces that are built to last and retain their value over a lifetime or two.

    Superior Materials and Construction

    One of the hallmarks of Amish-made furniture is the use of solid wood. The Amish typically use hardwoods such as oak, cherry, maple, and walnut. These are strong, durable, and resistant to damage. Unlike cheaper furniture made from particleboard or other engineered materials, Amish-made furniture is built to withstand everyday use and last for generations. Even veneers can separate or rub through. A one-and-a-half-inch piece of cherry or walnut is very hard to make unusable, and I promise it will make you happier every time you touch it.

    Another important factor contributing to the quality of Amish-made furniture is the attention to detail. Amish craftsmen take pride in their work and pay close attention to every aspect of the furniture-making process, from selecting the wood to the mechanisms to the final stain finish. They use traditional joinery techniques, such as dovetail and mortise-and-tenon joints, which provide extra strength and durability. Simple-sounding things like deep drawer boxes and finished wormy maple drawers show a level of craftsmanship not found anywhere else.

    Customization and Comfort

    In addition to the quality of the materials and craftsmanship, Amish-made furniture can be customized to meet the specific needs and preferences of the customer. Amish craftsmen are known for their willingness to work closely with customers to create pieces that are tailored to their individual style and needs. This level of customization ensures that each piece of furniture is unique and of the highest quality.

    Overall, the quality and comfort of Amish-made furniture are unparalleled. The seat of a kitchen chair with no padding is more comfortable than any seat anywhere else with two inches of padding.

    An Investment in Lasting Quality

    With their attention to detail, use of solid wood, and customization options, it's no wonder that Amish-made furniture is highly sought after by those who value quality, comfort, and durability in their furniture.

    Whether you're looking for a sturdy 20-person dining or boardroom live-edge table, a comfortable rocking chair, outdoor furniture made of recycled milk jugs, or a beautiful bedroom set, living room coffee tables, recliners, or a functional office set, Amish-made furniture is sure to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
