INFORMATION
OAK STANDARD COLOUR
-A strong and hard wood that will last for generations, oak has been prized in furniture making for centuries. Its natural colour and texture are characterised by a brown palette that is complemented with grey and yellow tones.
-In Standard finish, we offer stains that do not affect the wood structure. Most of the shades do not hide the texture. The natural characteristics of oak allow the wood to absorb colour differently, resulting in a surface with lighter and darker markings. The final look of the product is also influenced by the original wood colour. A colour stain is always finished with a transparent water-based lacquer, which creates a durable, impervious coating that requires minimal maintenance. -For the Oak Natural option we recommend an oil finish, which is applied to the raw, worked surface. The colourless oil base comprising natural oils and waxes creates a protective matte coating that does not crack or peel.
The oil highlights the natural colour of the wood, reveals its structure, and allows the wood to breathe. With the help of our Carebox, small scratches can be sanded over and re-oiled, leaving your TON product looking like new.
