Rustic looking furniture is usually made using wood in its natural form and is the traditional type of furniture found in Balinese households. Typically made using dark teak wood, these pieces are very solid and heavy. The Balinese do not have a great deal of furniture in their houses, but every house on the island has a large armoire that takes pride of place in the living room. This is used to house the television as well as to display any trophies or treasured ornaments.

The Balinese are very talented in creating beautiful carved designs in wood, and as a result, their furniture tends to be very ornate. They take their inspiration from nature, so the designs mostly feature flowers, leaves and birds. This kind of furniture can create a warm and welcoming feel in any home, wherever you live. The deep colors of the wood look great in any setting. The most common pieces of this style of furniture are tables, chairs, armoires and mirror frames.

types of wood used

Rustic furniture is created out of whatever natural materials are in greatest supply. In Bali, the material used tends to be teak wood or petrified wood. Petrified wood is a product that has been created as a result of trees being buried for millions of years by volcanic ash. Indonesia has the largest deposit of petrified wood in the world. Farmers are finding it in their fields, digging it out, and passing it on to the craftsmen to create unique pieces of furniture.

The furniture created out of petrified wood optimizes the natural shape and texture of the material. Stools that resemble logs of wood, or coffee tables using a slab of wood mounted on a steel frame are a couple of examples of what is available. These beautifully rustic and unique pieces of furniture usually feature polished tops with the sides left in their natural, time weathered and wonderfully imperfect state.

quality of wood

When choosing your rustic furniture, you will need to consider its durability. It is not always easy to determine the quality of the pieces, but generally, the heavier and more solid they are, the longer they will last. You will need to consider the change in climate if you are going to bring the furniture back to your own country. The warm, humid climate in Bali is very different to the cold, dry weather in Europe, Australia, and the USA. Some cracking may occur in the less durable wood.

Generally, wood needs to be finished with a varnish to protect it from drying out and cracking. This will need to be repeated over the years at regular intervals. With rustic furniture, a few tiny cracks can fit in well with the desired look.

how to use rustic furniture

Rustic furniture looks great when used in the living room or kitchen. The living room can feature a petrified wood coffee table as the centerpiece of the room, combined with a dark leather couch and chairs. The leather and wood look great together and create a homely feel.

For a large family, using a long informal petrified wood table in the kitchen, combined with benches instead of chairs is a practical and unique solution. This can be the focal part of the room, where everyone comes together to eat and discuss their daily lives. The cabinets and other furnishings would need to continue the rustic feel, by using natural or white washed woods.

As rustic furniture tends to be rather large, you will need to consider the space available before you purchase. A room can appear crowded or cluttered if it is not large enough to accommodate the furniture. If you do not have much space but still want a rustic touch, consider a wooden rocking chair or a small coffee table.
