5 Reasons to Choose Reclaimed Wood Furniture

by Ihuoma Eze January 06, 2023

5 Reasons to Choose Reclaimed Wood Furniture - RizAndMicaMake

What is Reclaimed Wood?

Reclaimed wood is wood that has been salvaged from old buildings, fences, or other sources. It is then recycled and repurposed into new products, such as furniture, flooring, or decorative items. If you're in the market for new furniture, you may be considering your options for eco-friendly and sustainable pieces. Reclaimed wood furniture is a great choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact and add a touch of uniqueness to their home decor

 

Here are 5 reasons to choose reclaimed wood furniture:

  1. It's good for the environment: Using reclaimed wood helps reduce the demand for new wood, which requires energy-intensive processes such as logging and transportation. Deforestation and other harmful practices can also be a concern with new wood, but reclaimed wood is already in use and has a smaller environmental impact. By choosing reclaimed wood furniture, you can help reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future.
  2. It has a unique character: Each piece of reclaimed wood has its own unique characteristics, such as knots, grain patterns, and color variations. This is due to the wood's age and history, which gives it a distinctive look and feel. No two boards of reclaimed wood are exactly alike, making for a truly one-of-a-kind piece. 
  3. It's durable: Reclaimed wood has already been used for decades or even centuries, so it has been tested for durability. This makes it a great choice for high-traffic areas or for those looking for long-lasting pieces. Reclaimed wood is also often more stable than new wood, as it has already undergone the process of drying and shrinking.
  4. It adds a rustic touch: Reclaimed wood has a rustic, natural look that can add warmth and character to any space. It can give a room a sense of history and authenticity and can be a great way to add a unique touch to your decor. Whether you're going for a modern or traditional look, reclaimed wood can add a touch of charm.
  5. It supports small businesses: Many reclaimed wood furniture companies are small businesses that are committed to sustainability and ethical practices. By choosing reclaimed wood furniture, you can support these businesses and help make a positive impact on the economy. Small businesses often put more care and attention into their products, and purchasing from them can be a rewarding experience.

There are many good reasons to choose reclaimed wood furniture for your home.

In conclusion, reclaimed wood furniture is a great choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact and add unique, durable, and rustic pieces to their home decor. From supporting small businesses to adding a touch of charm to your space, there are many benefits to choosing reclaimed wood. If you're interested in adding a reclaimed wood piece to your home, be sure to check out our box steel dining table – a beautiful, handmade reclaimed wood dining table that is sure to make a statement in any room.

Thanks for considering reclaimed wood furniture and making a positive impact on the environment.

ARAV: Reclaimed Bevelled Edged Desk with Trapezium Legs and Cabling Holes
Mark H.
Great product and service.

I ordered a Reclaimed Bevelled Edged Desk with Trapezium Legs and Cabling Holes based on the descriptions and pictures on the website and am very happy with the desk, which is perfect for my study. Its great quality, 10 mins to assemble and was delivered in the timeframe specified.
These are bespoke items so there is a lead time of a few weeks but absolutely worth the wait. Highly recommend.

CHISHOLM: Reclaimed Dining Table with Black Trapezium Legs

Stunning Trapezium table in Oak 150 x 80

I was hesitant about buying from a company I didnt know and was so glad I took the chance. After all, the reviews were amazing and I now agree with 5*****. Easy to assemble even for an older lady. There must be very few problems with goods arriving safely, the packing is a treat in itself. I just love the fact that this table was saving valuable resources from waste. The finish is great, the look is appealing and Im extremely happy with Chisholm in Oak.

JOSEF: Reclaimed Wood Shelf- No Brackets
Carol F.
Radiator Shelf / Breakfast Bar

I have a table and decided to replace my old black wide breakfast bar with a narrower shelf to match. Still wide enough for plates but not interupting the flow round the kitchen. It fits in beautifully and I just love admiring the wood knowing its from a great source. Waiting for a new bench to replace two dining chairs so Il have such lovely matching pieces. The prices are just so good and the delivery is fast.

MANU: Wood Stool / Side Table

Stops the dog eating my Crocs

Perfect beautiful little table for my small entry hall. I have a Dachshund who is known as THE DESTROYER and I needed a place to keep my outdoor clogs safe. I wanted something Id find good to look at as well as serving a purpose. I love my table, easy to assemble - packed so well and I use a Fiddes spray to keep it clean.
