You may remember our article on the hi-gloss range of bedroom furniture from Gleneagle. It talked about the Carlton and Clarion bedroom ranges. Both of these were similar designed sets yet had a differing hi-gloss finish (white and black respectively) but had the same walnut wood finish otherwise. Well since then these have become huge sellers for us at Furniture Store 247, and along with a high demand for these, customers have asked if we plan on adding more variations of the hi-gloss style.
Our response was “of course we are!” and we have.
Our first hi-gloss range we are going to mention is the Shelbourne range. This gorgeous hi-gloss bedroom furniture collection keeps the same styling as the Clarion and Carlton ranges, meaning it keeps the same stylish retro look but take a different slant on it. The different slant in question here is the fact the hi-gloss is in a gentle cream colour and the wood finish is lighter as this time it is in oak. This means it provides a more spacious an lighter look to your bedroom compared to the darker walnut used in the Carlton and Clarion ranges and means it blends in as opposed to stands out.
Then we have the Savoy range, as before it keeps the same design as all of the other hi-gloss bedroom furniture ranges from Gleneagle, but it goes for a clean, crisp minimalist style. In a pure white hi-gloss finish, there are not wood effects this time round; the entire piece of furniture is in a hi-gloss white, with the only accent being the chrome finish handles. There is little about the Savoy range that says subtle, but then again this hi-gloss retro style isn’t about subtle it’s about being seen and looking cool and judging by our sales, you agree wholeheartedly.
Both
the Savoy and Shelbourne ranges offer a complete bedroom solution with
drawer chests, wardrobes, dressing table sand more available from both
ranges. You can see Furniture Store 247’s full range of Gleneagle bedroom furniture along with the hi-gloss ranges by clicking here.
Rumours have been circulating recently about the demise of Gleneagle Furniture prompted no doubt by the closure of the UK Factory. Well we thought it was best to quickly reassure you that Gleneagle is still trading.
Production has simply transferred to a state of the art factory in Ireland. All the Gleneagle ranges are still produced and are available to customers in Ireland and the UK. We still stock all existing ranges and Gleneagle show no sign of slowing down. In fact they have just launched a new High Gloss Range which is available from Furniture Store 247.
So just to refresh, you can purchase all existing products from Gleneagle and they will be delivered. Gleneagle bedroom furniture is still the best value for money and the new state of the art Irish Factory means it could even be better quality.

A few years ago a high gloss (or Hi Gloss) finish on furniture was considered tacky. Everything had to be in a wood effect (pine, beech, oak, maple and so on) or very minimalistic (or both).
The
look of gloss finished doors or drawer fronts with a wood frames was
something more akin to the late 70’s and early 80’s, and many of us
could look back at our photos of that time and see something along
those lines adorning our bedroom or living room.
However, today this style is once again in popular demand. Why? It’s that whole concept of styles coming back around again. What was cool becomes tacky, what was tacky becomes retro, and what is retro becomes cool and fashionable – the circle is complete.
Now that isn’t to say we want the same tacky furniture we had back in 1980, of course we don’t, what we want is a similar style but in quality materials, built to last and designed to impress.
Well Gleneagle Furniture (not one to be behind the current styles) have stepped up once again with several hi gloss finish furniture ranges – the Carlton Range, the Clarion Range, The Savoy Range and the Shelbourne Range. However as the Savoy range is more of a minimalistic white bedroom furniture range, we’ll leave that for now and look at the Clarion and Carlton ranges.
Now the first thing about these bedroom ranges you will notice it they are very similar, and by similar I mean the same. That’s because they are, with the obvious exception of the fact the Carlton range is in a hi gloss black finish and the Carlton in hi gloss white, but the point is they are offering choice in finish but still both retaining the same great quality and style you expect of Gleneagle Furniture.
Both these bedroom sets have a dark walnut wood finish on the main frame word, but the doors and drawers are all in a hi gloss finish based on the range you want. Blanket boxes have a front panel that matches the gloss finish, and beds have a inset in the headboard and bed footer with the same styling.
You can get the same furniture items for each of these bedroom furniture
sets including wardrobes (double and single) dressers and stools,
bedside units, drawer chests, beds in differing sizes, mirrors and more
meaning each provides a complete bedroom solution. As a matter of fact
at Furniture Store
247 we have both single bed and double bed furniture sets for both the
Clarion and Carlton ranges, saving you money and you can add to it with
individual items as you wish.
So if you are looking for something a little retro, but stylish and quality for your bedroom, check out the Clarion Hi Gloss and Carlton Hi Gloss ranges from Gleneagle.
