If you have been shopping for solid wood furniture in Ontario, you have probably come across the term Mennonite furniture. You may have seen beautiful solid wood dining tables, beds, chairs and bedroom sets and wondered what actually makes Mennonite-made furniture different. Is it simply a style of furniture? Is it the way it is built? Is it really worth buying? At Cinnamon Cabin Co, we believe the difference goes much deeper than appearance.

Perfectly smooth furniture has its place. But sometimes the little imperfections are what make a piece worth noticing. At Cinnamon Cabin Co, we love solid wood furniture that still looks and feels like real wood. One of the best ways to preserve that natural character is through a rough-sawn or saw-marked finish. Instead of sanding away every trace of the woodworking process, saw-marked furniture allows some of those distinctive lines and textures to remain visible.

At Cinnamon Cabin Co., we like to keep things a little simpler.
