Hooker Furniture utilizes a multiple-step finish process of up to 16 finish steps. This results in an unsurpassed clarity, depth and color richness and durability to our finishes. Through hand-craftsmanship such as rubbing and padding, our finishes feel as good as they look, with a smoothness that is delightful to the touch.
Hooker Furniture uses carefully chosen solid wood and select wood veneers over durable wood products in our furniture construction. Use of veneers enables more decorative looks unattainable with solid wood. Veneers are used over durable wood products such as medium density fiberboard (MDF) and particle board, made of renewable resources. MDF and particle board are used in quality furniture for areas that need to be stable, such as large surfaces. These durable wood products do not expand and contract with heat and cold and do not absorb moisture as much as solid wood, which results in stronger and longer-lasting furniture.
Located just north of Venice on the Adriatic Sea, the Italian province of Treviso has produced architechural and artistic treasures since Renaissance times. Treviso has the authentic feel of pieces that have lived a rich life as they aged beautifully through the centuries. The dark macchiato finish with rub-through shows the warmth of the wood and has a soft surface texture to give the appearance of an Old World antique that has aged naturally over time. Capture the beauty and romance of the Italian Renaissance in classic furnishings updated for today with Treviso.
