Amish Bedroom Collections

In addition to dining furniture, the Amish have developed extensive collections of well-built bedroom furniture. Unlike entertainment centers and computer desks which they do not use in their homes, bedroom furniture demonstrates the time-tested aspect that gives these collections true "quality control."

The Summit Amish Bedroom group is one of the best sellers at House of Oak & Sofas. With transitional styling, sensible dimensions, oak and cherry availability, the Summit sells well to all ages from young adults to seniors. The Summit was one of the first groups we carried that offered the low footboard which is popular now in many styles due to the visual unclutteredness, ease of making the bed, and "hangout" for those with long legs. As with most of our Amish-Crafted furniture, the Summit is available in 10 standard stain colors, and limitless special stains. Come in today and see why we sell at least a piece a week on average from this group.

The Madison bedroom collection is a 2011 House of Oak & Sofas introduction of Amish-crafted furniture. This collection represents some of the most important design features of the evolving arts and crafts genre. The simple straight lines of classic quartersawn white oak artistry are complimented by a modern tapered bell-bottom leg style that gives an overall transitional appeal to the collection. The original inspiration for this collection came from a similarly styled dining group which sports the same flared leg. As usual, the collection is available with twin, full, queen, king or California king bed sizes and may be crafted from oak, cherry, maple or hickory.

Most Amish bedroom furniture collections feature dovetailed drawers, but those that do not have drawers with corners as strong as the wooden tool boxes the Amish farmers have carried to their barn-raisings for the past 100 years. Joinery--that process of fitting two pieces of wood together in a tight fit--has varied forms. Of particular interest are the dovetailed slats peculiar to some Amish-crafted beds. The three to four slats that support the mattress are dovetailed on each end so that the bed is "tighter" and also to prevent the side rails from spreading enough to permit the mattress to fall to the floor. Additionally, bolt-on or inter-locking side rails mean that the beds do not "wiggle" or the wood does not "wear down" and create "wiggle-room" in the joints. The result is a solid wood bed that will retain it's quality for 50 years.

The Amish-crafted bedroom bedroom furniture has two additional features that set it apart from the competition. Tops, sides and drawer fronts are, in most cases, constructed from solid wood. A quick survey of competing furniture lines, some of which we sell at House of Oak & Sofas, shows that one or two of these areas are often compromised--for two reasons. One is to reduce the cost, the other is to avoid the challenges of using solid wood: dealing with natural growth marks, cracks and knots. The solid construction means that in 30 years, all parts of the piece could be thoroughly sanded and refinished to look as good as new.

The second feature that favors the bedroom furniture collections is the uniform generous depth of dressers and chests. Once again, as you survey the bargains of the newspaper furniture inserts, you will find shallow depths of tops and drawers that save the manufacturers money. The usual depth of dressers range from 17 to 20 inches, whereas commercial case pieces can be as shallow as 14 inches, which results in drawers that have less storage space and often lack sufficient length to support their weight when opened.

As always, when choosing bedroom furniture, it helps to take a trip to House of Oak & Sofas, visit with a salesperson, and generally browse the store in search of ideas to complete the home of your dreams.
