Artesa Chest Armoire

Amish-made furniture is built by individual artisans rather than on an assembly line, prioritizing solid wood construction and traditional joinery techniques. This approach ensures a level of durability and attention to detail that is significantly higher than mass-produced, factory-made alternatives.

The standard side-mounted glides offer full extension, meaning you can access the entire depth of the drawer easily. The soft-close upgrades, available in both side-mounted and premium undermount Blum options, prevent slamming and provide a smoother, quieter closing experience that protects the wood frame over time.

Select grade lumber is chosen for its consistency, featuring fewer knots, mineral streaks, and color variations for a cleaner, more uniform look. Standard grade will showcase more of the wood's natural character, such as knots and grain patterns, which some prefer for a more rustic or authentic aesthetic.

Yes, you have the option to fill knot holes with black epoxy. This technique highlights the natural character of the wood while creating a smooth, durable surface that adds a distinct, modern contrast to the piece.

Knobs are generally more compact and subtle, making them ideal if you want the wood design to be the primary focus. Pulls offer a more substantial grip and can significantly change the aesthetic—sleek, modern pulls will emphasize the Artesa collection's updated lines, while more traditional hardware can lean into a classic look.

All available options—Red Oak, Cherry, Walnut, Maple, and Hickory—are hardwoods suitable for furniture. Cherry and Walnut are prized for their rich color and aging process, while Maple and Oak offer exceptional hardness and durability. Your choice should ultimately depend on the color tone you want to achieve in your bedroom.
