Finding real solid wood
furniture is becoming a tough task, isn’t it?
My wife and I were doing some shopping for lamps for our home last week.
A table of an interesting design caught my eye in one of the shops in Halifax.
I always pay attention to interesting designs for custom furniture ideas. The
table looked very solid and chunky plus the description tag clearly said it was
made of solid hardwoods. I got curious and examined the table. At a closer look
it turned out to be… simple MDF (which is paper glued together) covered with
veneers. So the guys in that store didn’t really know what they were selling.

furniture? Find out in this article.
