When Budget Matters Get The Most Value From Atlantis Furniture

Solid wood, especially hardwood, is becoming more and more expensive. As it is also becoming much more of a precious commodity, you may want to consider other options for achieving the same beautiful look of expensive wood. One of the ways is through the use of veneer for stylish, contemporary, yet affordable furniture.

Veneer furniture is furniture made of a solid substance such as MDF (medium-density fiberboard) or plywood of various types, and then overlaid with a thin layer, or outer covering, of a higher grade wood veneer. The practice of applying wood veneer to furniture is a centuries old one, and has been practiced by generations of carpenters and cabinet-makers.

Veneers may be made from any number of materials, but among the most common and widely available are wood veneers. Maple, mahogany and exotic hardwoods are among some of the materials used to craft thin wooden veneers. But veneers are limited to wood; some furniture will even be designed with veneers of plastic, concrete, or melamine. Same with wood, these veneers are applied in a thin layer over a solid surface furniture base or form.

Applied by skilled craftsmen, veneers are applied with wood glues and other strong adhesives for a present a uniform and long-lasting final product. Availability of veneer furniture is widespread and some of the furniture designs available in are truly unique and absolutely as beautiful as they solid wood counterparts.

Typically you'll find that veneer furniture is much friendlier to your household budget, being a more affordable option for furnishing your living room, dining room, bedroom, office study, family room, children's play room, and even storage area in a utility area or in your garage. If you are looking for 'green' solutions, you can also take pride in doing your part for trees as a diminishing commodity.

Many people do associate veneer furniture with discount pieces that come in kits, to be assembled at home by the consumer, and don't last long. Although this may be true to many products and suppliers, there are equally as many examples of veneer furniture in higher quality and designed for lasting longer periods of time. Instead of pressboard, some quality manufacturers choose to use solid wood sections for durability coupled with less expensive composites covered with veneer to achieve extremely stylish, yet affordable high-end designs.

A wonderful example of combining a variety of materials to produce a highly stylized and appealing collection would be to consider the Atlantis furniture Collection by Bentley Designs. With a character all of its own, the Atlantis Dining range features highly polished reflective granite set into laminated solid wood frames with oak veneered panels in a 'natural' finish, creating a stylish look.

The Atlantis Dining Collection is an 'earthy feel' and designed to offer lasting appeal. With a selection of sizes, the Atlantis table can be combined with a choice of slatted back or fully upholstered black leather chairs. Highly polished granite slabs are set into laminated solid wood frames with oak veneer panels in a natural color finish that make the Atlantis table a lovely option for your cotemporary home.

Because so many modern homes are designed with open space or a 'great room' you might consider these useful pieces in the Atlantis Dining Collection to complement your dining table and chairs:

• Landscape Mirror

• 2 door Sideboard

• Coffee Table

• Corner TV Unit

• Entertainment Unit

• Hi-Fi Cabinet

• Lamp Table

If dark rich colors are more to your liking, you'll find the excitingly stylish lines of the Bentley Designs, Tokyo Collection truly beautiful. Celebrated as the 'king of woods,' the Tokyo dining table and complementary dining room pieces uses walnut. The collection is crafted from veneers and solids of American Black Walnut, noted for the beautiful character of the grain, producing more figure variation than any other wood. Walnut offers a wonderfully lustrous patina over the years.

To assist with the overall cost of furniture, many manufacturers take advantage of minimizing shipping costs. This cost savings is reflected in the price you pay for furniture with component materials as shipping usually means less weight and space. Since many suppliers do not offer fancy showrooms, you are also afforded savings because your selection is shipped directly from the manufacturer.

Furniture shipped directly to you in boxed units may require some assembly at the end destination. When considering purchasing your furniture from an online supplier, be sure to investigate the shipping and delivery options. A number of suppliers will provide services to ensure the complete assembly and placement of your furniture.

New Atlantis $24.95 At its most intimate level, music heals our emotional wounds and inspires us. At its most public, it unites people across cultural boundaries. But can it rebuild a city? That's the central question posed in New Atlantis, journalist John Swenson's beautifully detailed account of the musical artists working to save America's most colorful and troubled metropolis: New Orleans. The city has been threatened with extinction many times during its three-hundred-plus-year history by fire, pestilence, crime, flood, and oil spills. Working for little money and in spite of having lost their own homes and possessions to Katrina, New Orleans's most gifted musicians--including such figures as Dr. John, the Neville Brothers, "Trombone Shorty," and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux--are fighting back against a tidal wave of problems: the depletion of the wetlands south of the city (which are disappearing at the rate of one acre every hour), the violence that has made New Orleans the murder capitol of the U.S., the waning tourism industry, and above all the continuing calamity in the wake of Hurricane Katrina (or, as it is known in New Orleans, the "Federal Flood"). Indeed, most of the neighborhoods that nurtured the indigenous music of New Orleans were destroyed in the flood, and many of the elder statesmen have died or been incapacitated since then, but the musicians profiled here have stepped up to fill their roles. New Atlantis is their story. Packed with indelible portraits of individual artists, informed by Swenson's encyclopedic knowledge of the city's unique and varied music scene--which includes jazz, R&B, brass band, rock, and hip hop--New Atlantis is a stirring chronicle of the valiant efforts to preserve the culture that gives New Orleans its grace and magic.

The Atlantis Fragments $28.99 These poems are of an unearthly beauty. They celebrate love, beauty, and humanity; and yet throughout many of them is a consciousness of impending apocalypse. The imagery, lush, exotic, full of colors and magic names, is a welcome relief from the sterile, prosaic poetry of today. If you enjoy tripping on language, this book is for you. Whether the poems really are from the Atlantean or whether they are the creations of poet Sidney-Fryer, they deserve to be read and experienced. -- Charles K. Wolfe Sidney-Fryer is, in a very strong sense, a traditionalist; his creations, superlatively original as they are, yet give us a powerful feeling of continuity with our own past and culture; they make us see ... the ideals that moved us when we were less "secure" and more human: adventure, love of life, and above all, the intricate beauty of a world long vanished - yet not vanished, if only we had eyes to see. -- Richard L. Tierney Sidney-Fryer has created, in his fictional Atlantis, an entire civilization and a body of absorbing literature. The book should appeal to lovers of poetry, to devotees of science fiction, and to those who admire writers who can fashion a realistic world from the materials of mythology and speculation. -- Earl J. Dias Mr. Fryer is a profound student of Clark Ashton Smith, and the influence shows, but he is very much his own poet, and he structures and plays with a surety and deftness which is remarkable. -- Gahan Wilson A delightful book of verse - purportedly fragments of poetry from the lost Empire of Atlantis - that is very much in the tradition of Spenser's Faerie Queene. A work that reflects a glittering imagination and no mean talent. -- James Gorski
