At ArtFactory.com we believe in building furniture that is not something that you just use for a few years and then throw away. Building items that are disposable is a practice that is unique to the past hundred years.

Something like a solid wood bed would be passed down through a family for generations.

This type materials and construction makes for a product that will stand the test of time. Most importantly, the equestrian and floral acanthus motif carvings were all done by the hands of one master carver. Direct carvings by one masters hands is especially relevant in the eyes of appraisers when determining a piece as meeting fine art qualifications.
