CARE GUIDE - OILED WOOD
An oiled finish is a durable natural looking finish that can be revitalised (and if necessary, more easily repaired). Oiled finishes require some low level maintenance to keep the wood protected and looking its best.
Day to day cleaning :
DAY TO DAY CLEANING
-Wipe up wine, oil and any liquids that might stain as quickly as possible. -Wipe clean with a damp non-abrasive cloth, then using a dry cloth remove any excess moisture. -To ensure the finish remains as resilient as possible to staining we recommend Osmo Wash & Care (8016) as it contains soaps and oils to both nourish and prevent the wood from drying out.
6 MONTHLY REPLENISHMENT / MORE STUBBORN STAINS:
As the piece is used it can dry out as the oil can thin with wear and washing with water alone. If the table looks dry or you have a more stubborn stain we recommend using a revitalising Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner (white 3087) for oak pieces and (clear 3029) for walnut pieces
DO NOT:
-Leave any water, wine, oil or liquids that might stain – wipe up as quickly as possible. (Oil provides a semi-permeable finish, which means some liquids can penetrate the surface if left). -Use any chemical cleaning products or bleach as this will remove the protective layer of oil and it will then stain.
MATERIALS AND FINISHES
BLACK AMERICAN WALNUT
Black American walnut is slow growing deciduous tree native to north America and Canada. It is a hardwood prized for its dark brown, purplish hue with a sometimes swirling grain, it can display many unique characteristics, such as knots and variations in depth of tone.
Walnut will get lighter with age becoming more honeyed over time. We use a protective clear oil finish which enables the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage.
EUROPEAN OAK
European oak is a slow growing hardwood native tree to Europe. It has a golden to light brown colouring with a variety of grain patterns. Oak is very hard, durable wood and gets darker and richer with age. .
We use a protective white oil finish to allow the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage European oak can display a variety of characteristics from straight grain to large swirling crown cut grain Medullary rays, small 'Cats paw' knots all of which are an intrinsic and natural part of the grain pattern.
BLACK STAINED OAK
We coat the oak wood in a black stain that allows the character of the wood to shine through. We then finish it in a clear oil coating to allow the timber to retain its colour and withstand daily spillage.
DETAIL
CONSIDERATE DESIGN
Our designs also need to work hard, and how our tables feel and work, as well as look, is thoroughly considered. The table should feel generous to its guests, and also inviting. The hand should wander to the table’s underside, the edge of the leg should not catch or bruise, and an extending table should store its leaves within, and be easy to reconfigure.
A SHARED PASSION
The people who make our pieces are also exceptional. We have a long, shared history with the workshop in Dorset.We share a mutual respect and trust. These makers take a huge pride in what they make for us.
In our work the human hand is present from the crafting of the original model, through to the final sand and carefully applied oil.
NO COMPROMISE
Dining tables have to work – hard. Our tables are made from solid timber which means they stand up to the daily grind and last a lifetime.We prefer a protective oil finish that will age gracefully without heavy discolouration, withstand daily spillage, and can also be sanded down and rescued when the worst happens and ‘someone’ leaves a hot pan on top.
We source FSC and PEFC timber, and each table’s top planks are carefully selected and laid up to create not just a working surface, but also a tableau of the tree’s beauty and a testament to its long years of growth.
