Solid wood furniture is a "gift from nature" and is a carrier of dialogue between modern people and nature. Despite the development of science and technology, technological innovation, human beings have invented many new materials, such as glass and plastic, but none of them can shake the status of wood in furniture.
Because wood is a material with temperature, it comes from nature, and the traces of age are engraved in every wood grain, making each piece of wood unique.
1. From sustainable forests
Canadian hemlocks come from Canada's coastal forests and are usually 30 to 50 meters tall, 1-1.5 meters in diameter, and up to 500 years old.
When an adult Canadian hemlock leaves the forest, three young hemlock trees have taken root, and the principle of "cutting one kind of three" is an important concept that Canada upholds when it is based on nature. Only when forests are managed sustainably can wood become an infinitely accessible resource, and wood products will continue to store the carbon absorbed by trees, which is a truly green and low-carbon product.

Canadian hemlock belongs to the pine family, although it is a cork, but the name of "iron" fir is worthy of the name. It has a hard texture, excellent hardness and strength, and durability, with excellent processability.
The color of the hemlock ranges from milky white to pale yellow, and the color is light and even. The rings are clear, the wood is fine, and the surface has a slight luster. Without too much modification, the log-colored hemlock furniture itself exudes the beauty of nature, bringing people closer to nature and adding a touch of warmth to the home. The wood grain and texture without artificial modification make people feel like they are in the forest, feel the breath of wood, and listen to the stories of nature.

In addition to the simple log style, hemlock can also control other trendy styles. Whether it is a simple and bright modern style or a subtle conservative, natural and rustic American country style, Canadian hemlock can also be vividly displayed. This is due to the resin-free nature of Canadian hemlock, which can better absorb different paints and colorants than other cork materials, coupled with the excellent processing properties and nail grip of hemlock, so that hemlock wood can also "play" with a variety of popular styles nowadays.
The decorative paintings on the walls and the leather sofas highlight the owner's good taste, and redefine the art and elegance through the high-grade colors and exquisite qualities such as hemlock sideboards and coffee tables.

4, belongs to the choice of young people
The natural attributes of solid wood furniture, the design style of simplicity, and the return to the natural nature of these characteristics, are quite favored by modern young people. However, when choosing a material, hardwood is better than softwood, but because of its slow growth, the price will be higher than that of softwood. For young people who are new to society, hardwood furniture is prohibitive.
However, compared with luxurious hardwood furniture, hemlock furniture due to the low cost of raw materials, while meeting the pursuit of solid wood furniture, is the ideal material for young people to choose furniture materials, in line with the budget of most young people. Each piece of wood has its own pattern, just like a young man with an independent mind and his own story.
