It all starts with choosing the right wood and finishing it to perfection. A traditional favorite for furniture and woodworking, White Oak has a neutral light- to medium-brown color with a characteristic coarse, uneven grain that forms distinctive waves or "cathedrals", and often showcases its Medullary Ray pattern. White oak accepts stains well and is naturally rot-resistant, making it a good choice for outdoor applications.

*Please Note: Due to the natural characteristics of hardwoods, including grain, texture, and color, we cannot guarantee an exact match to samples or online photos. Slight variations in color are normal and add depth and character to the product. Other factors such as age and exposure to light can further alter the appearance of the piece.
We highly recommend ordering a sample of your preferred species and finish as the final tone of the wood will differ across finish options.
