Furniture
Colours
We can supply our ranges of furniture in a variety of
colours. The choice of colour will depend on the type
of wood to some extent. Shown below are five standard
colours that we have found work well for many markets
and we use them as a baseline. If you need a specific
colour for your furniture we can almost certainly match
your requirements.
Please keep in mind that although the colours shown
below have been scanned from the real thing, the pictures
are subject to the vagaries of digital storage and transmission
and may not look the same on your monitor as they do
in reality. We can send actual samples for approval.
Please ask for further details.

Furniture Finishes
Our finishing team has many years experience in working
with different materials and finishes. We are able to
supply you with furniture in a choice of finishes to
suit your particular market or application. As with
the colours, it isn't possible to show these finishes
to best effect with a small picture on a computer monitor
but we can supply actual samples at your request. Please
contact us for further
details. Below are brief descriptions and a link to
a larger photo:

 Classic
Finish
This is a high build high depth finish that can be used
with gloss levels from matt through to a full gloss. It
is a multi layer method that works best with better quality
Mahogany. We do not use sprayed colour balancing between
coats, and so this technique allows the natural beauty
of the Mahogany grain to show through the finish to it's
best effect. This finish can be further worked to closely
approximate a French polished finish if required. |
 Antique
Distressed
Using natural materials and the well kept tricks
of the antique fakers, we can age and distress your
furniture to better blend in with original antiques.
This aged and distressed look is most effective on nicer pieces of Reproduction furniture but
it also enhances the budget ranges of our furniture.

 Antique
Painted
Working with colour can transform a piece of
furniture. We then use tradional finishing techniques such as
crackle finish and glazes on top of the colour layer to antique
and age the painted surface. Very effective and quite
economical.
|
 Gilding
Using either real Gold or Dutch metal, and full
or partial gilt. We can also antique the gold to give
it some age. This looks great on mirror frames, and
is very effective in combination with the Antique Distressed
finish.

 Standard
NC
A typical 2 coat Nitro Cellulose Finish. Suitable for
most normal applications. With or without grain filling
according to your choice.
