Solid American Oak Furniture
Oak is the workhorse of quality furniture: pale honey when new, deepening to a warm gold over years of light exposure, with a straight prominent grain that reads as classic rather than dated. It is the timber most Australians ask for by name.
About American Oak

- Origin: North American temperate forests (FSC-certified)
- Grain & colour: Straight grain with strong medullary rays. Pale cream when new, ambering to gold over time.
- Janka hardness: 1360 lbf — hard enough to dent-resist heavy dining use.
- Best for: Everything — dining tables, TV units, bedsides, bookcases, kitchens.
- Price tier: Mid-to-high (baseline hardwood)
Timber Care & Craftsmanship
Solid hardwood ages beautifully when it is looked after correctly. Dust weekly with a soft dry cloth, wipe spills immediately, and keep pieces away from direct sunlight and heating vents. Every 6–12 months, re-oil or wax the surface with a food-safe hardwood finish to preserve the natural grain and lift the colour. Avoid ammonia and silicone-based sprays — they build up and dull the timber over time.
Each Oakwalnut piece is kiln-dried below 12% moisture, machine-jointed and hand-finished. We source from FSC-certified plantations in North America, Europe and South-East Asia. Because timber is a living material, minor grain, knot and colour variation is part of what makes every piece one of a kind.
