Antique Carpathian Burl Bedroom Furniture -- A Stunning Choice

Are you looking for only the finest furniture for your bedroom? If so, then you may want to consider antique Carpathian burl bedroom furniture. Some collectors are unfamiliar with this particular type of wood as it is quite rare. It originates from the elm tree, which provides light brown wood that was popular for many furniture choices including English provincial. The word burl is a term used for a spotting or mottling of the wood often caused by a rare growth or less commonly, a tree disease. So to put it all together, Carpathian burl furniture is a type of elm furniture that is beautiful and uncommon. To own an antique piece made from this material is a dream of many collectors.

You will find that this type of wood varies in color from a rather pale tan to a deep warm brown or almost red shade. The material is commonly used as a veneer and provides durable flexibility. You may wonder what makes this type of elm burl more special than other types. Well, first let's take a look at its origin. The Carpathian Mountains extend for approximately 1400 miles and span several European countries including Romania, Slovakia, Poland and the western part of the Ukraine. This mountain range is the stuff of legend and was featured in the well known literary work Bram Stoker's Dracula. The elm trees that grow in this region are highly prized for the rich, beautiful burl wood they produce.

Once you begin your quest for antique bedroom furniture made from this material, you may find that your choices are few and far between. While elm was certainly a popular material in particular time periods, such as the English provincial and Windsor days, Carpathian burl furniture was more rare. It will likely be difficult to track down bedroom pieces made from this rare wood. You may find chests or dressers with burl detailing, however.

There are specialists out there who can be commissioned to create a piece of furniture exactly the way you want it. You can specify the material, time period, and style that you want.
