That all exposed parts of the furniture are made of solid board, either softwood or hardwood lumber. No veneers or particle boards are used. When solid boards are used in furniture construction, they are glued together side by side along the edges. Often, a number of boards are used to make the wood more stable and reduce the chance of warping. By following a seam to the end you can always identify solid board, where you will find the end grain. Many veneers are glued over the edges to look like solid wood, but they will always be faced on the end and show no end grain.Remember, allwood furniture is not necessarily solid wood. A veneer can help you achieve the look you desire at a cost lower than solid lumber.
