What are Hardwoods?
Hardwoods are woods that come from deciduous trees and have a closed grain. Types of hardwoods used for furniture construction are walnut, oak, mahogany, teak, maple, and cherry.
Most hardwoods are very durable and heavy, and pieces of furniture made from these woods hold up for many years under normal use.
While oak and maple hardwoods are considered somewhat informal, mahogany, teak, cherry and walnut are used in more traditional or formal interiors.
