Is oak furniture good quality?

1 Answer
Is oak furniture good quality?
Yes, oak furniture can be of good quality. As a dense, strong hardwood, oak can make for sturdy furniture that is capable of standing the test of time. However, the methods used to craft furniture and the strength of the hardware and adhesives that go into it also impacts the overall quality. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of oak furniture.
