Crazed Chi
Hello, I am looking for an industrial strength living room furniture set, possibly sold by themselves. Something that will stand up to a lot. Ex. my old furniture set after just a few months the coffee table's legs are falling off and the chairs to the dining table are falling apart, as well as the dining table itself having the cheap laminate it was covered with peel off. However this time I am optimally just looking for a living room set, meaning no table and chairs. If anyone could tell me where I can find them cheap without spending too much. Either online or in store I don't care but I live in California so it would have to be a store I could go to nearby.

Answer
the famous institution of "triangle trade" by which raw materials were sent to the home country is the operant factor!molasses was shipped to europe and was manufactured into constituent products like candies,syrups,liquors,rum and many other products:the same is true of cottn from the southern colonies and tobacco for cigars,chewing tobacco and medicinal applications etc!
england was experiencing the very beginnings of waterwheel powered industries in stamping,cloth manufacture,sewing and weaving of the cotton raw material in the "industrial revolution"!england specialized in calicos and gaily printed fabrics by the bolt!whiskey,rums and lesser refined liquors were a major sales good produced from slavery's sugar plantatations in the caribbean and southern colonies growing areas!the entire north american continent was cover with hardwood forests yeilding walnut,cherrywood,oak and ash and other fine woods for furniture manufacturing,ship building elements for "ship's knees" and bulwarks...american oak being superior to and less deplieated than english forest stocks!furniture was a very important english product for tasteful clients...it was sturdy,artistic,well designed and elegant!chippendale styled occasional chairs,armoires,dining room tables and chairs and writing desks were key products of english factories and were recognised the world over!wood was also used in the manufacture of rifles,wheelwrights work on wagons and carridges,oxen yokes and farming tools manufactured in england!!buttons,needles,thread and notions gave england a reputation as a nation of shopkeepers and salespeople!these items as simple as they would seem required great refinements of manufacture and skill to efficiently and economically produce!these were the stuff of colonization and grew strong ties with the settlers of english extraction who relied upon the home country to produce and supply them and at a decent price and abundant quantity that would tend to preclude "make-do" native american equivalent efforts or attempts at independant production!!paper and books made from wood products from america were important as literacy became more widespread and proven beneficial to england's colonial ends although it tended to raise certain dissatisfactions long-term!britain did it's best to maintain certain monopolies in cannon founderies,gunpowder manufacturing,axes and other such implements to limit settlers abilities at release themselves from their dependancy and to flee to freedom in the west beyond taxation,percentages owed to "the crown" and other such vexations!many millions of acres of hardwood forest were absolutely destroyed in the manufacture of charcoal to be shipped back to england for the making of iron and steel!!products that were rarely if ever shipped back for native consumption except as tools and trade goods unavailable within the colonial backwoods!no mining was encouraged in the colonies..even the "bog iron" from ponds from meteorites was exported in many cases back to england and away from colonial forges!
