Lighting Wood Samples
A guide to choosing your wood type
Diverse, durable and with an enduring beauty; wood is the perfect natural material for our product range. We use four types of sustainably sourced timber for our lighting collections - ash, oak, walnut and tulip - and solid oak or ash for our furniture collections. You can request a free wood sample if you’d like to compare and contrast the suitability of each finish in your home.
Oak
Oak is our mid-colour wood and when illuminated produces a striking contrast between the inner golden glow and darker wood outside. Used in quality furniture production, it fits into a myriad of rooms and interior schemes. Over time sunlight will cause oak to darken and mellow slightly.
Ash
Ash is our palest wood and when sliced thinly, light emanates through the grain producing an intense glow. It has a slightly narrower grain compared to oak, but like oak will darken gradually over time for a richer aesthetic.
Walnut
Walnut is our darkest natural wood type. When illuminated it turns a rich golden colour, contrasting with the silhouetted dark exterior and producing stunning warmth and shadows.
