What Color painted furniture sells Best ?

The color of wooden furniture that sells big is a question attached and combined with the factor of , what furniture sells the most , in order to have the entire selling mentality , concerning the wooden furniture .

I should remind you that when we talk about colored painted furniture , the majority of the times we talk about the cheaper , more common types of wood and not the elite , more luxury ones .

We give colors to the more lower priced wood type ones and most of times , to the industrial wood .

The color painted furniture that sells the most are the grey black white and the darker ones , because they can combine beautiness , general “warmth” , neutrality to match to all the possible types of houses , classisism so they can be “immortal” , “humble” and not “flashy” design and can match to many homes styles , giving prestige .

Of course the color painted furnitures that “imitate” the more expensive wood types , are always selling much and many people choose them , if they cannot have a more luxury type of furniture .

Having color painted furniture that looks like the very expensive wood types , is always classical and of course it isn’t “bad” to do such creations .

That’s why you see many times in some of the places you go , wood furniture from lower price wood to be painted with colors that try to duplicate a more “luxury” pieces or wood .

That’s why you see furniture from oak , pine , spruce , been painted as chestnuts , walnuts , cherry tree , tropical wood types .

The expensive wood doesn’t “like much” the color paint .

It isn’t only my personal opinion and there is an “unwritten law” , which the majority of the people follows concerning the elite , expensive and hard to find wood .

That is a “crime” to paint with colors , the expensive wood pieces with the magnificent beautifulness of their “waters” and its general shape and naturalness .

Usually the manufacturers leave the natural and more expensive wood , with only a protecting – finishing layer of a very high quality’s oil on it , a natural wax or maybe shellac and that’s it .

Sometimes they use chemical finishing products , that penetrate – absorbed inside the wood’s pores , avoiding the crust finishing materials , in many cases .

This finishing crust doesn’t last for ever and sooer or later it’ll start to “break” letting moisture penetrate and harm wood .

Many times when they’ll use a crust finishing product , a laquer , et.c , they rub it with a light sandpaper when it dries and then they finish with a nice oil , wax , shellac , et.c .

They make many combinations trying to let the wood to “breath” and a great example is the expensive rifle manufacturers .

The expensive rifles have linseed oil finishing , as their last finishing layer .

I personally like to have my wood furniture and woodworking projects if there are from more elite wood , “free” from varnish materials and “stuff” like that .

You gave so much money to get a very nice furniture made from walnut , chestnut , tropical wood , ebony , mahogany and so many other types of wood , and you’ll paint it ?

I’ve chosen some very nice natural oils-waxes , et.c products to buy for your finishing in , HERE .

Combine the classical furniture colors and create masterpieces , to sell .

Certainly you can combine these classical and not paint your furniture in only one color . You can make whatever combination you want with your furniture and sell them and be different in the markets .

There is no limitation to your fantasy and vision concerning the designs you want to create and satisfy your clients or yourself .

Of course you should consider the rest of the house’s general design and not be very extreme coloring the furniture and make them seem “strange” to the other home’s design . If you can have a professional designer’s opinion , it would be nice and helpful .

The color painted furniture are very “flexible” and can satisfy even the most demanding “apetite” . You can make whatever design with a nice colored furniture and create whatever effect you want to give to your home .

What is the biggest Advantage of choosing classical colors for your furniture to sell to sell ?

The biggest advantage to choose classical and neutral furniture collors to sell , is that these range of colors can fit very close to perfect to the majority of the house’s decorations and designs .

The classical paint colors for your furniture can be matched to the biggest variety of the inside – outside of the houses in all over the world , in all the countries of our planet .

It is a basic knowledge “column” , that if you want to choose colors to decorate your home , office , public agency , whatever building , choose colors that aren’t “extreme” to the majority of the people .

It is kind of rare to see houses having one wall painted red , the other black , the other white , the other pink , the other yellow , et.c .

What Maintenance and treatment the color painted furniture needs ?

The color painted furniture aren’t way different to the not colored furniture , concerning their maintenance and your inspections, to see their “health” .

The weather conditions , the wood bugs and the use you are putting to them are the main factors , to always and continuous inspect .

You should be a little more careful to the hits above the color painted furniture surfaces , because even the smallest hit can remove the paint and make it seem “ugly” , spoiling the general look .

Avoid the places with great heat ( fireplaces ) inside your home , to put your colored furniture and in general the big temperature changes .

The heat generally , dries the inside oils of the wood and the paint and it’ll need more often hydration from you , with linseed oil or any other oil .

Make regular inspections to the furniture and identify if something is wrong concerning the paint during time .

If you want to see some very good dyes – stains – water based finishes , et.c to supply , go in HERE .

The color painted furniture is a very smart and cheaper “solution” , to make whatever furniture creation you want and sell them .

They can last and be your house companion , for many many years without problems . Choose the color combination you want to paint them between these classical colors and you’ll save a lot of money .
