WHAT IS DISTRESSED FURNITURE? A QUICK GUIDE
Distressed furniture is furniture that looks aged and weathered.
Distressing can be achieved through a range of techniques including sanding, waxing, wet or dry brushing, scraping and whitewashing. You can use these techniques stand-alone or even in combination with one another.
The end result, though, is always irresistible. Wooden furniture with chipped-off edges or whitewashed appearance and irregularly painted surfaces lend an unmatched bucolic charm to any space and stirs up everyone?s imagination. Distressed wood furniture amplifies the decor of any resort, hotel, cafe or bar be it in designs as varied as shabby chic, country/farmhouse, industrial or modern.
The key elements of distressed OR shabby chic style furniture are:
A COMBINATION OF PAINT & WOOD
Distressed furniture is essentially wooden furniture painted or chalked to make it appear alluring. There are some wood types that take to distressing better than others. Wood species like Mango and Pine form better substrates for distressing given the neutral grain structure of these woods. Additionally, lower density woods or softwoods are better for distressing given they can be sanded, chipped or rough sawn with relatively less efforts and risk than hardwoods.
AGED OR WEATHERED LOOKS
Distressing makes the furniture appear old and weathered. Distressed finishes are often created by wearing or scratching the paint off the furniture.
VIBRANT PALETTE
When it comes to distress painted furniture, messing up your palettes is good! Since distressing usually involves more than a single color and then wearing them down, the final products are a lot more peppy, effervescent and chic than your other furniture items.
IDEAL SETUP FOR DISTRESSED FURNITURE
Adding a few signature elements of the distressed style can augment the ambiance of your foodservice or hospitality business to the uber-chic:
Get the walls done up in whites and creams or other neutral shades. Having colorful distress-finished furniture placed against the backdrop of whitewashed walls magnifies the coolness factor of your classic hotel furniture set-up
Furniture in softer distress tones adds unmatched elegance to cafes and restaurants with modern or contemporary decor. Upscale Indian homes with rustic flooring and wooden panelling are ideal for distressed vintage furniture that has a royal Indian appeal & zing to it
