One of the most familiar wooden types in the office furniture is walnut. A common walnut wood used for office furniture is walnut, mahogany, ash, or maple. Walnut is one of the strongest hardwoods because of its density, so it is perfect for use in furniture that requires stability.
Mahogany is another well known wood commonly used in making furniture. This type of wood is also stronger than walnut because of its increased density, and because of the natural oils present in the wood. It has been in existence for centuries. Its dark, rich color makes it a perfect material to be used for antique chairs and tables. It is popular for its fine durability and ability to resist stains.
Ash is another common wood used for office and home seating. This material is extremely light, making it easy to move around when making modifications to a room.
