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.

Furniture Store 247 has a couple of good recommendations if you are looking for some traditional styled furniture for your home.

First up we have the new best selling rustic oak furniture range by Trafalgar Furniture. I’ve talked about this before but I’m going to mention what the positives and negatives of this range over our other best selling traditional furniture range from Oakleigh Furniture.

Well both of these sets have a full range of occasional furniture. What’s occasional furniture? Occasional furniture is these pieces of furniture that can really go anywhere such as end tables, or lamp tables, display cabinets and bookcases, console tables and sideboards. Any of these will add a classic touch to a living room, hallway, bedroom or dining room.

Other occasional furniture in both the Oakleigh range and the Trafalgar rustic oak range includes coffee tables, TV units and cabinets and hi-fi units, but these are more aimed at just the living room or lounge (though they can accent a bedroom furniture set very nicely).

Both of these quality furniture ranges have dining tables, extendable dining tables and matching dining chairs. Both also have a variety of sideboards in large and small sizes, but the Trafalgar rustic oak range has a little more versatility in its range of console tables (one of which even integrates a wine rack).

When it comes to the bedroom, both Oakleigh and Trafalgar furniture have most of the bases covered but shine in areas where the other lacks to a degree. Both sets have beds that match, but where Trafalgar only has a double bed and a king size bed, Oakleigh have s single bed too. Both have various wardrobes, tall boys and drawer chests, Trafalgar provide 2 differing types of dressing tables/desks with a matching stool, which Oakleigh does not.

So both these furniture ranges offer traditional styling that can be used throughout the home; Oakleigh being finished in solid ash, whereas Trafalgar have the rustic oak finish. Both offer a few minor extra pieces of furniture to the other as mentioned above, though nothing really deal-breaking. Finally the Oakleigh range is perhaps a little less expensive than the rustic Oak range from Trafalgar.

However in summary the positives and negatives are so minimal, you can be sure either of these ranges will provide you with quality furniture that can benefit your home. So at the end of the day it’s just comes down to personal tastes, inevitably the choice is yours.

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.
