TINTED OIL
White oil
For a slightly colder and whiter tone, you can choose white oil treatment for most of our furniture. The surface feels slightly smoother compared with soap.
Brown oil
Brown oil brings out the sheen and the grain of the wood, while the pigment adds a wonderful deep, dark tone. Surface treatment with brown oil gives your piece of furniture a classic, sober look. It’s a perfect choice when you’re looking for an eco-friendly alternative to dark, tropical woods. Because an oiled wooden surface is already saturated with a fat, it does not acquire grease stains as easily.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO BEAR IN MIND WHEN USING TINTED OIL
White oil and brown oil contain pigments which make the surface lighter or darker respectively the more coats of oil are used. The furniture is just as easy to care for as when using natural oil but takes a little more work to be restored to its original condition. You should take more care when oiling a white/brown oiled piece of furniture to avoid the pigment being rubbed off and the surface looking blotchy. Natural oil without pigments is a good option for maintaining your wood surface.
WHEN USING TINTED OIL
Remember to shake/stir the oil well so the pigment is distributed evenly. Add a coat of tinted oil using a brush or cloth.
Wood samples
The surface treatments below can be ordered as wood samples. These make it easy to compare and match the surface treatment with the rest of your decor, check the texture and feel and ponder your choice in your own time. This makes for a much more well-founded, thoughtful decision. Sustainable & beautiful!
