Solid Wood worktops are manufactured from finger
jointed hardwood staves approximately 40mm wide. This method of construction
provides a stable panel with an attractive blocked appearance which is ideal
for domestic or commercial worktop applications .  |
iroko is a stable, solid, heavy timber from Africa, similar to teak.
It is naturally oily so has a head start for the maintenance programme. It starts pale brown but
deepens quite quickly to a rich brown. Often used as a contrasting wood to compliment paler
cabinets or floor. |

beech is a popular wood seen a lot over recent years
in all types of furniture. It is pale, light tan wood with darker colour flecks which
add to the character. It is between Maple and Ash in style and colour. |
 |
Maple is an excellent straight grained white wood.
The colour and grain pattern tends to be very consistent, wide and uniform apart from a bit
of colour here and there. |

Oak is extremely strong and durable and usually has
some 'character', particularly in long lengths. The worktops may include a few small clean
knots. Oak will simply last forever with maintenance and will consistently look better year by
year. |
