Finishes of wooden tables
When choosing a new wooden table, you have a lot to choose. Are you about which model, type of wood and size it will be? Then you have the finish of the wood where you can make a choice. With the overview below, we help you choose between the different wood finishes that are possible with our Sav & Okse tables.
Matt lacquered or oiled table
With a wooden table you can choose between a matt lacquered, oiled or whitewash finish. The whitewash finish has the same properties as an oiled table. In the overview below, we have listed the differences between a matt lacquered versus the oiled or whitewash finish.
Matt lacquered | Oiled / Whitewash |
Smooth table top | natural table top |
Lacquer is on the table top | Oil soaks into the table top |
Can withstand moisture better than an oiled table. Easy to take off | Moisture can get into the table. Not suitable for leaving wet things on |
A table with little maintenance | Easy to maintain yourself, by lightly sanding and oiling |
Less scratch-resistant than an oiled table | Maintenance advice: oil once or twice a year |
Scratches in the top are less easy to fix yourself |
