Important Info
Please be advised that these finishes are an approximate representation only, as colours seen on the web are rarely 100% true, and different monitors will display colours differently.
Matching stain colours
If you are trying to match an existing piece, please keep in mind that over time wood furniture will change in colour. Lighter stains will often darken a few shades and exposure to bright light may fade some darker tones.Also please keep in mind that different manufacturers may use a stain with the same name, but they are not necessarily identical. In addition, each manufacturer has their own way of applying stain. Just as there are hundreds of shades of white paint, there are just as many permutations of an Espresso stain.
Factors which impact stain colours
Different types of wood even different batches of the same type of wood will take stains differently and even a single piece of wood will not absorb stain uniformly. This is due to the fact that every tree and resulting plank of wood will have a unique grain pattern with different curves, knots or mineral streaks as a result of the individual growing conditions. These small quirks or so called imperfections are what cannot be manufactured, they are the influences of nature that make solid wood instantly recognizable and sought after.
As a result, these pictures can only be an approximation and not exact.
Metro sofa table - solid wood, custom built furniture, Canadian made
The Metro sofa table is a classic piece. Perfect as a sleek sideboard, or as a display piece for family photos or artwork. Built in Canada in solid wood, the curved base and graphic lines are the epitome of elegance. This piece is available in many stains and several different types of wood, including Maple, Oak, Quarter sawn Oak, Cherry and Pine.
Available Woods
Maple
Cherry
The colour of this wood will naturally deepen with age and exposure. A fine uniform grain with a smooth texture are its characteristics. Often the lumber will have small flecks and gum pockets which add to the visual interest of this hardwood.
Wormy Maple
This Maple is recognizable by its distinctive character of bluish tinged streaking and pinholes which lend a rustic look. The markings are a result of the Ambrosia beetle which bores its way through the trees leaving the wood with the markings. The structural hardness and integrity of the wood is unaffected; it is solely a visual result.
Oak
Often thought to be the hardest of the woods, it is in fact softer than the denser Maple varietal. Oak is predictable to work with. When it’s cut, it doesn’t twist or split, and there is less wastage. Oak is slower growing, so there is less tension in the wood. Oak furniture is often known for it`s very traditional furniture, such as Mission or Shaker styles, and Quarter Sawn.
