Swatches are a guide only. Because every piece is made from real solid wood, slight variations in grain and tone are part of its character — natural marks to be embraced, making your piece truly one of a kind.

Customization & Finish Options
Colour & Grain
Creamy white to pale gold with a subtle, fine grain and occasional bird's-eye or curly figure.
How It Ages
Deepens slightly to a warm honey-cream over time while remaining relatively light and consistent.
Staining
Takes a wide range of finishes, though careful preparation helps keep colour even on this dense, tight-grained wood.
A dense, durable hardwood and one of our most versatile furniture woods. Its fine grain and high Janka hardness make it especially well suited to dining tables and other pieces that see daily use.
Colour & Grain
Warm cream to gold with mineral streaks, small knots, worm tracks, and natural colour variation that gives every board distinct rustic character.
How It Ages
Warms gradually with age while its mineral streaks and character markings remain the defining visual feature.
Staining
Works especially well with natural, medium, and darker stains that complement its rustic variation rather than hiding it.
Wormy Maple is a character-grade soft maple rather than Hard Maple, so its typical Janka hardness is about 950 lbf. The natural mineral streaks, worm tracks, knots, and colour variation are intentional features of the material.
Colour & Grain
Warm tan to light reddish brown with a pronounced, open grain pattern.
How It Ages
Develops warmer amber tones over time while its strong grain remains prominent.
Staining
Good — its open grain takes stain readily and shows colour variation with plenty of visible wood character.
A classic North American furniture hardwood with bold grain and warm colour. It is durable enough for everyday furniture while retaining a traditional, unmistakably wood-forward appearance.
Every finish and every wood species is on display in our four Ontario showrooms — walk in any day, no appointment needed.
