Having only just bought a new home I have been looking to acquire a few lovely pieces to furnish it with. I love the look and feel of antique furniture but it can be quite hard to come across just what you are looking for and the prices can be astronomical. In terms of the choice and pricing it made much more sense to look at reproduction pieces but I didn't want to compromise too much on the quality.
We visited a number of retailers in our local area but nearly all of our search has been carried out on the web. As we have spent several hours visiting a variety of replica furniture web sites I thought I would share some of our findings with any of you who have a similar interest. One site we visited recently particularly impressed us. It's the Newby House Interiors site and we were delighted by the range and especially the quality of the items on offer in their catalogue.
We spent quite a few hours browsing their collections which cover the full range of furniture from bedrooms to living rooms and dining rooms - all available in a variety of styles. The site is very well laid out so it's a breeze to quickly find the items you are after.
I was looking mainly for occasional furniture, particularly reproduction coffee tables and reproduction hall tables but found myself spoilt for choice. The Seymour tables especially caught my eye. You can choose either a mahogany or walnut finish and they are inlaid with walnut feather banding and boxwood. There is a wide choice of reproduction coffee tables, reproduction hall tables as well as other occasional tables to suit all tastes and budgets.
The quality of all the pieces they have on display really looks superb and fully justified our decision to go the reproduction route. To be honest I think you would have to be quite the expert to even tell the reproduction items from the originals. They don't just look 'old' - the way the French polishers have carefully added distress to the pieces is simply amazing. The hue and sheen of the wood really does make it look like some family heirloom that has obtained its character from years of love and use!
There is no substitute for care and attention to detail when it comes to quality furniture and it's obvious that they take that very seriously at Newby. They are clearly very careful with everything, from the choice of wood and cut to best show off the natural knots and grain to the quality of the construction and the expert finishing process. It's a labour of love for them I think and all aimed at producing a piece of furniture that the master craftsmen of generations ago would have been justifiably proud of.
Each piece on the website has clear, high quality photographs to accompany it as well as lots of detail on the choices of wood and finish that are available. You can also watch a YouTube video which shows one of the pieces in more detail and describes the construction and finishing processes.
If you are looking to purchase some reproduction pieces or simply have a passion for beautiful furniture then I would really recommend taking a look at this site and the collections they have there. They offer a full interior design service if you are furnishing a home from scratch and quick delivery on all items. At the time of writing they even have a 40% discount on the entire range.
