It’s a white oak slat on a smoked oak backing, which is technically called fumed oak, but we call it smoked oak because it’s not a stain. It’s not a dark stain. It’s actually fumed. Get that darkness into the wood grain of the oak. So you still see a lot of the natural wood grain popping through, but this gives us a nice contrast. Like I said, it still looks very natural. It’s totally unique and beautiful, and we’re excited to see it being installed in the home. It’s for a custom home in Florida

The white pigment in the oil settled in the grain beautifully, achieving a high-contrast, cerused appearance! #rubiomonocoat | Rubio Monocoat USA | Facebook
