Oak Furniture

- Where does the material oak come from?

Oak wood is a type of hardwood that comes from the oak tree. The wood comes from Europe. The factories that cut and process oak trees for SpecialS wholesale are in the Netherlands and Germany. From here, it is cut into planks and sent in containers to the factory in Indonesia. No oak is available in Indonesia itself, which is why this strategy is used. At the factory in Indonesia, the oak is dried and processed into our furniture. The furniture is then shipped to SpecialS or delivered directly to our customers.

- How is oak wood used in furniture from SpecialS?

Several product lines use wood-type oak. Oak generally presents itself as a kind of country-style wood that used to be very popular. This is mainly due to its grain structure. You can see this grain structure very well on the furniture. This gives the furniture a unique look. Garden furniture often uses oak too, because it is weatherproof and goes well with wrought iron. This also gives the old-fashioned, unique look that oak is known for. Oak is also used in our Studio Globe Wernicke line. This line defines itself as a modern style. Lastly, oak wood is one of the most resistant and durable woods, so it is very popular for the manufacture of quality furniture. Another great advantage is its moisture resistance.

- Why do people choose oak wood on furniture? (Grain structure, appearance)

Most people choose oak because it has a unique grain structure. Furthermore, oak is very durable and its style suits certain furniture. It is also easier to color oak to create different looks. SpecialS classic furniture matches the material oak.

- What finishes are available on oak wood products from SpecialS?

At SpecialS, many different finishes are possible with the wood-type oak. In general, most furniture made of oak comes in brown. Besides this brown color, there is also a honey oak color, which is often used in the Studio Globe Wernicke line. At SpecialS, the brownish colors have the OM and OMD abbreviations. MYD is the abbreviation for Studio Globe Wernicke's mahogany color and MYL is a light, cherry-colored oak. Each piece of furniture is lacquered so that the wood retains its finish/color well. The suitable finishes for each product are displayed on their respective product pages.

- How do I keep oak wood products clean and in good condition?

Want to keep oak clean and in good condition? Then warm a dishcloth on a heater or in front of a stove. Brush over the table with this cloth, this way you will get the color back on the table nicely and it will be kept clean. You can also go over the furniture with a wet cloth and then polish it off with a warm, dry cloth. The following should anyone be aware of:
- Use a soft, clean cloth, possibly slightly damp to wipe your furniture. Never use an aggressive cleaning agent as this can damage the wood
- Watch out for sunlight as it can discolor wood
- Use a cloth and when your furniture has become damp, absorb it immediately, otherwise, the risk of stains arises
- Do not place hot pans on a wooden surface or write directly on the table as this may cause stains or bleed
- Light damage can often be repaired by using special oil. This oil makes the damage less visible. For more information on this or our products, please contact us.
