Wood Selection
White Maple
The hardest of the hardwoods we use. Known for its uniform light color and subtle grain pattern. A great choice for a small room or anywhere a light tone is important. The most popular choice.
Cherry
Also a popular choice. Its rich red tone darkens to an even richer patina over time. To many, nothing compares to the statement cherry makes.
White Oak
We especially like the cathedral pattern of flat sawn oak. Gustav Stickley, Frank Llyod Wright and others were big fans of white oak.
Walnut
One of the most celebrated American hardwoods, known for its fine-yet- open grain, unique pattern and bold dark color. Also more expensive but arguably worth it.
Finish Choices
Clear
We like clear, naturally finished woods. Our clear finishes feature a satin conversion varnish, providing the same durability common to kitchen and bathroom surfaces.
Stained
Woods can be stained to any color you choose or, if you bring us a sample, we can probably match or come close to matching it to the wood you choose
Painted
Would you prefer the modern look of paint? Bring us a store color chip or actual piece. Or just the manufacturer’s product number and color name, and we’ll make a sample for your approval.
