wood type and stain

6 years ago

I love the tone of this wood. Could you share the species? In another photo it looks like you have pine window casings and you got it to manage perfectly with this nook. I am trying to match fir doors with pine cased windows and want to achieve this beutiful honeyed brown too!

Hi, Thanks for your kind words. The wood is fir and the windows are made of pine interiors that have been stained to approximate the fir trim. The fir trim is actually clear finish to leave the natural fir as much as possible. The formula for the stain color was really a trial and error mix. So, unfortunately the exact color is unknown.

Thank you so much. I am glad to know the fir is clear which is what I hope to do with ours. They arrive this week!

Beautiful art wall and table! I'd suggest a medium honey-colored stain. Given the likely heavy usage, the table top is one of the few places I'd suggest a polyurethane finish. Legs can be finished with e.g. tung oil as it is very easy to use and should be OK in the lower use area.
