The total quality of Beaver & Tapley furniture begins right at the very beginning of the production process. This cutting machine will cut panels to a very high accuracy, and being computer controlled, stores the precise measurements for all our panels.
Our veneers (all from sustainable and farmed sources of course) are some of the finest in the world, and are carefully selected for each panel to ensure that the grain matches on every set of doors and drawers. Every vulnerable panel also has a solid edge, so it is not as susceptible to knocks and scrapes around the home.
