Discover Twenty Five and Pine, where we craft durable, eco-friendly furniture made from responsibly sourced hardwoods and recycled materials. Our tables are designed to last, with beautiful finishes and sustainable practices.
At Twenty Five and Pine, we believe in creating furniture that not only looks beautiful but is built to last. One of the key ways we achieve this is by using high-quality, sustainable hardwoods in our tables. Whether you're looking for a walnut side table, an ash coffee table, or a cherry accent table, our commitment to craftsmanship and eco-friendly practices is woven into every piece.
The Difference Between Hardwoods and Softwoods
When it comes to furniture, hardwoods like walnut, ash, and cherry offer a superior level of durability, beauty, and stability compared to softwoods like pine or poplar. Hardwoods are denser and more resistant to dents, scratches, and wear, making them ideal for furniture that will stand the test of time.
- Walnut offers a deep, rich brown color with a distinctive grain, providing a sophisticated look for any home.
- Ash has a light, golden hue and subtle grain, perfect for a more minimalist or modern aesthetic.
- Cherry features a warm, reddish tone that darkens over time, adding character and charm to your space.
Our Sustainable Sourcing Practices
At Twenty Five and Pine, we are dedicated to using responsibly sourced hardwoods. Many of the wood types we use are FSC certified, meaning they come from well-managed forests that prioritize environmental sustainability and long-term forest health.
We work directly with reputable lumber yards to ensure that our hardwoods are sourced with respect for nature and the planet. By using FSC-certified wood, we contribute to sustainable forestry practices that support wildlife habitats and protect biodiversity.
A Plant-Based, Non-Toxic Finish for a Healthier Home
The finish on our hardwood furniture is just as important as the wood itself. That's why we use a non-toxic, low-VOC, plant-based finish that not only preserves the natural beauty of the wood but also ensures a healthier living space. Our finishes are free of harmful chemicals, making them safe for your home and family.
The natural finish enhances the wood’s unique grain, adding a layer of protection while allowing the material to breathe. Unlike traditional chemical finishes, our plant-based oil-based finish is eco-friendly and low-maintenance, meaning you can enjoy your beautiful, durable furniture without worrying about exposure to toxic substances.
Why We Avoid MDF, Particle Board, and Plywood
Unlike mass-produced furniture that uses materials like MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard), plywood, and particle board, we exclusively use solid hardwoods for our tables. These materials are often made with glues and chemicals that can emit harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds), which can impact the air quality in your home.
By choosing solid hardwoods, we're able to offer a product that is not only stronger and more durable but also free of toxic chemicals. Our furniture is built to last, and with its sustainable design, it’s a better choice for your home and the planet.
The Beauty of Recycled Plastic Marble
In addition to our hardwood tables, we’ve introduced an eco-conscious, recycled plastic marble option for those looking for something both unique and sustainable. Our recycled marble tables feature surfaces made from repurposed refrigerator liners, bread tags, license plate holders, and other recycled plastic materials.
This innovative use of recycled materials helps reduce waste while providing a stunning and functional tabletop surface. The white and black marble designs are just as beautiful and durable as natural marble, but with a fraction of the environmental impact.
Eco-Conscious Packaging for a Sustainable Future
At Twenty Five and Pine, we’re committed to minimizing waste at every stage of production. Our eco-conscious packaging is made from recyclable materials, ensuring that your new furniture arrives safely without adding to the environmental burden. We prioritize packaging that’s minimal but protective, reducing our carbon footprint and helping to preserve the planet.
