Well ok maybe it’s cool and maybe it’s not, but there is no doubting it is popular. How do we know this? Well quite simply due to the demand we are seeing in our orders for items from the Trafalgar rustic oak collection.

Over the past few months our rustic oak furniture range from Trafalgar has literally flown of the shelves (well out of the warehouse, it would break the shelves!) with orders ranging from one or 2 pieces of furniture from the collection such as console tables, display cabinets and bookcases, to full blown sets, mostly bedroom furniture sets or dining furniture sets.

However we have noted that it seems to be not just the excellent build and quality of our rustic oak furniture that compels our customers, nor is it the stylish yet traditional design, but it is those things combined with the sheer range and the “mix and match” factor it gives. For example the rustic oak collection has 2 different desk/dressers, which can be matched with a stool, or you could use one of the 2 matching dining chairs with it for more back support and it wouldn’t look a bit out of place.

It seems that our customers agree as many buy 1 or 2 pieces of furniture to match up for a desired effect, or buy extra items to match a typical set, such as a bookcase, TV unit or display cabinet to go with the bedroom items they have (then again most people have TV’s in the bedroom so it makes sense).

So if you are after a very versatile and traditional look for one or more rooms in your home, you can’t go wrong with the rustic oak collection by Trafalgar and judging by our orders, you seem to be in agreement.

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.

We are happy to announce that the Trafalgar Rustic Oak range of furniture has arrived here at Furniture Store 247.

Made from the finest oak and distressed to give an authentic look, this furniture collection is beautifully designed and traditionally styled. It encompasses bedroom furniture, dining room furniture and some occasional furniture/living room furniture.

The great thing about this collection is the furniture can be mixed and matched to create different looks through out your home.

For example the bedroom range comprises of chests of drawers, beds, wardrobes, dressers, blanket boxes and wall mirrors; however there is nothing to stop you using one of the dressing tables as an office desk for your study or lounge and it will fit in perfectly. Perhaps your want to use the tall wall mirror from the bedroom range as a hallway mirror? You can even use the console tables as sideboards for your hall and maybe have a chair from the dining collection in there too. Got a TV in your room? Use either the widescreen TV stand or the corner TV stand from the living room/occasional range.

This versatility makes this a fantastic range to give so many different possibilities for each or all your rooms in your home.

That’s not all though as the Trafalgar Rustic Oak range can be purchased in sets as well as individually from Furniture Store 247.

Currently we offer a Trafalgar bedroom set comprising of a double bed, 2 bedside tables, a blanket box, 4 over 3 drawer chest and a double wardrobe with drawer.

Our Trafalgar dining set includes a twin leaf medium extending table and 6 oak dining chairs with leather seat pads.
