FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

COLOUR & FINISH

• Is the pigmentation on the furniture fully covering?

  No, the pigmentation is not completely opaque. Wood is a living natural material, and its natural grain and any knots may be visible through the pigmentation.

  Factors affecting appearance:

  • Wood species: Different wood species absorb pigment in different ways, which can lead to variations in shade.
    
    
  • Structure and grain: The wood's natural pattern affects how the color is distributed.
    
    
  • Light exposure: The color shade may change over time if the furniture is exposed to direct sunlight.
    
    

  These properties give each piece of furniture a unique appearance, which is part of its natural charm.

• How do I know which furniture pieces match together?

  On each product page, there is a heading "SUITABLE FOR" where we provide suggestions for other furniture that aesthetically and functionally complement each other.

  Please note that:

  • Even though the furniture is recommended to match, the colors may vary slightly.
    
    
  • Pigmentation and wood structure vary between different products and manufacturing series.
    
    
  • Lighting and placement in the home can affect how the color is perceived.
    
    

  Our recommendations are based on our experience in design and material selection, but should be seen as a guide rather than a guarantee for an exact color match.

• Does all your whitewashed furniture match?

  Our whitewashed furniture is manufactured by different suppliers and may therefore vary slightly in shade.

  Factors affecting the color shade:

  • Wood species – Different wood species absorb pigment in different ways.
  • Sunlight – Exposure over time can affect the shade.
  • Manufacturing process – Differences in pigmentation may occur between different series.
  • Veneer and solid wood absorb oil and/or stain differently even if it is the same type of wood.

  
  On each product page, there is a heading called SUITABLE FOR. There, we provide recommendations for furniture that match each other. Please note that this is only a guide, and the colors will not be exactly the same.

• Can the colour of my furniture change over time?

  Yes, since wood is a living material, the colour can change over time depending on:

  • Sunlight and UV radiation – Exposure to light can affect the shade of the wood and pigmentation.
    
    
  • Temperature and humidity – Variations in indoor climate can affect the structure and colour of the wood.
    
    
  • Usage and wear – Contact with objects and daily use can create natural changes in the surface's appearance.

  
  To reduce changes, it is recommended to avoid direct sunlight and use furniture care products suitable for each surface.

• Why does the colour of my furniture look different than in the picture?

  We photograph all our furniture in neutral light to provide as accurate colour reproduction as possible. Despite this, some differences may arise due to:

  • Screen settings – Colours are reproduced differently on different screens and devices.
    
    
  • Natural variations in the wood – Two pieces of wood are never exactly the same, which means the shade may vary slightly.
    
    
  • Lighting in the home: Daylight and artificial lighting can affect how color is perceived.
