The Skovby #942 sideboard has five wooden shelves behind four doors and two drawers. The refined details of these new storage items makes this line a special addition to the Skovby range.
Starting at $3098
The use of aluminium lists on the side edges and special designed aluminium handles provide this line with a unique touch. The cabinets have a geometrical appearance.
The 900 line is available in various wood sorts and finishes and comprises two sideboards and three display cabinets.
Wood is a living material - continuing after the tree has been felled - and is affected by the humidity in air and temperature. Wood used for furniture production has been dried to be in balance with the average indoor climate - i.e. a room temperature of approx. 20 deg. C and an air humidity of approx. 50%. In Denmark the air humidity varies from the driest winter period to the most humid in summer between approx. 40 and 65%, which causes the humidity of the wood to change from 8 to 13% - i.e. a difference of 5%. Wood has the ability to absorb and emit moisture depending on its surroundings. As a result wood will expand in moist periods and contract in dry ones. In other places of the world there may be even larger fluctuations in temperature and air humidity.
This applies for both veneered and solid furniture, but especially solid furniture is sensitive to such fluctuations.
Some wood sorts change colour after unpacking. Sunlight triggers this process. The more sunlight, the more change in colour. If you want to delay the process, do not expose your furniture to direct sunlight. In order to avoid markings from dishes, vases etc. make sure to move them regularly. When supplementing your Skovby furniture, please be aware that there will be a colour difference between new and previously purchased items.
WHERE TO USE YOUR FURNITURE?
If you want the extension leaves to change in colour concurrently with the tabletop, you must keep your table extended with all the leaves.
If the table is exposed to an uneven influence of light, it is a good idea once in a while to turn it 180 degrees, so that both ends get equal amount of light. Sun and heat dry out wood and may cause cracking.
Never use indoor furniture outside. Major deviations from normal indoor climate may damage the furniture. We therefore recommend that you get a hygrometer to control the air humidity.
