Finishes

Working with wood

A solid piece of timber exudes a warmth and sensory feel that’s luxurious to feel and hold. It’s a raw ingredient we love to work with. Our selection of natural timber is sourced from only sustainable plantation forests. Nothing compares to the beauty of the grain and the richness and depth of colour of solid wood.

On a practical note, the timber is carefully selected and sealed in marine grade sealer and finished in marine grade clear top coat satin finish. This protects the timber when specified for an outdoor application. The solid wood you select can also be finished in a natural oil or wax.

American White Oak

White Oak is strong, hard wearing and used widely in cabinet and furniture making. One of the reasons we choose to work with this timber is due to its sustainability; it grows naturally in hardwood forests across North America. The grain is straight and it exhibits a wonderful range of tones and colours, with striking medullary rays and a medium to coarse texture that we work to a beautiful finish. See the full range >
