Is maple good for furniture?

1 Answer
Is maple good for furniture?
Yes, maple is good for furniture. Due to its natural beauty, the wood is one of the most popular materials for crafting desks, tables and case goods. Maple is also a dense, strong wood that allows furniture to hold up well to the effects of daily use. In addition, maple holds stain and paint well, freeing furniture makers to top it off with a seemingly endless array of finishes. Find a large selection of maple wood furniture on 1stDibs.
