Wood Grains and Color Selection
We strive to pick the most beautiful wood grains available, but it is important to remember that each piece of wood within a species will have some variations. Our goal is to offer products that fit your vibe - whether that's your personality, your home décor style, or the energy you want to bring to your home. The best way to do this is by having the power to pick your wood type and color.
Wood Types We Typically Use
- Hard Maple - a light and creamy wood that sometimes has slight yellow or red hues. Colors applied to this wood will also show lightly.
- Red Oak - known for its red undertones; matches well with white oak.
- White Oak - a light-colored wood with olive undertones that matches other wood species well.
- Ash - a classic light wood that is solid and beautiful. It matches well with other wood species. At times, grains may resemble oak, and it can have a slight yellow hue.
- Walnut - dark-colored wood with tight grains; one of our favorites!
