Back to School Desks and Bookcases

Posted by Jay Frucci on Sat, August 25, 2012 @ 03: 50 PM

It's that time again! The time when life speeds up, the days get a little shorter and as a result you can't make it to the beach any more.

desks

The result is that the renewed heat and humidity that hit the Northeast this week, doesn't feel as good as it felt when your feet were in the sand a few short weeks ago. But there is good news with this time of the year!

You no longer have to play entertainer to your kids. Our three boys are under the age of twelve and we are desperate to share them with thier friends and teachers once again.

No matter how old your school age children are, there is one commonality.We are ready to begin a new school year no matter how much we will miss the summer.

To get them ready for school, we have desks and bookcases on the 5th floor of our Hanover showroom. We all want our kids to be successful students and no matter their individual scholastic strengths, organization and having a manicured workspace is key to their success.

Finding a desk that is the right height with good surface space is important to helping kids focus quickly and can keep them on task. Messy areas provide distractions for kids. So help them find a desk that allows them to spread out a bit. Proper bookcase storage is just as important to staying organized. Being able to locate books and materials quickly helps kids spend their energy on completing quality work not searching for their resource books. Staying organized and having a functional study area is as important to success in the classroom as having the right technology or a great  teacher.

It is time to get back to school. It is time to get organized. It is time to come check out the desks and bookcases at Furniture Consignment Gallery.

Rock maple dressers are our favorite choice for bedrooms for people from ages zero to 100. 0uimg 0559That's right they are perfect for all ages. For kids rooms, these are a great fit. They are durable, rock solid and can take all of the abuse that you can throw at it. As your kids grow, these pieces can travel with them to their dorm room, to their first house and then onto their kids rooms. These pieces are that tough and they look that good that you will never want to let them go.  They are even a perfect fit for senior housing complexes. These chests serve the entire circle of life. They are less money than you can buy a fancy looking chest at the new furniture stores. Solid maple dressers from the 1950s, are better built, still look great and will outlast all of us. We have maple dressers from $350-$700.

Eldred Wheeler Dining Room

Posted by Jay Frucci on Fri, July 20, 2012 @ 10: 00 PM

She found the chairs in our showroom about a year and a half ago. She bought them immediately and then had them recovered in a nice rose petal fabric.

uimg 9605

She ordered the table direct from Eldred Wheeler and 8 months later her perfectly matched, tiger maple double pedestal small dining table finally arrived. After a few months of trying to get used to the gorgeous set, she and her husband could not eat a relaxing meal at the table. Too worried they would harm the table, they just could not enjoy it and decided to sell it for something more low key.

The excellent pricing combined with the immediate satisfaction of being able to avoid the long lead times to have an Eldred Wheeler product made especially for you, makes this set very attractive. The table is priced at $4,800 and the chairs for $4,000.

You can find beautiful hand made, reproduction furniture such as this Eldred Wheeler dining set in our Furniture Consignment Gallery in Hanover, MA and in our newest Furniture Consignment Gallery in Chestnut Hill.

4 Poster Beds

Posted by Jay Frucci on Thu, July 12, 2012 @ 01: 36 PM

bedsFour poster beds were once a symbol of a man's wealth. Fancy beds and the dressings that cover the canopy and the openings indicated the social status and the financial strength of the man. In today's world, hardly anyone uses the canopy tops anymore, but they are still nice even if the curtain dressings are not utilized.

Four poster beds are readily available for all persons from various econmic backgrounds and so they are no longer a symbol of wealth. However, there are differences in today's four poster beds most of which boil down to personal preference.

Some folks like a bigger, bolder poster that fills the room, while others like a poster that is sleeker and more elegant. Sometimes more is less and somteimes more is, well...more.

We have noticed that homeowners who appreciate color and design work would rather see less of the dark wood so that the eyes focus on beautiful fabrics on window treatments, bed dressings and the wall coverings. While others want  to see the wood work.

There is no right or wrong, only personal prefernce. And the great thing about Furniture Consignment Gallery is that we have many wonderful four poster beds to choose from at the moment. We have a nice, bold, turned black King 4 Poster bed or a beautiful Teak, canopy, king bed that has rustic, elegant posters and a canopy top. A larger and more brawny Thomasville 4 poster king bed and a lovely Hickory Chair canopy King four poster bed. There are also two four poster beds in Chestnut Hill one that is a Queen and another that is a King.

With many four poster beds to choose from, this a great time to make a nice addition to you home. All of these beds are of excellent quality and craftsmanship.
