At Taigh Living, we pride ourselves on selecting the finest timbers to create exquisite furniture. Here’s a closer look at five of our premium stock timbers:
American Black Walnut
Renowned for its rich, dark hue, American Black Walnut is a luxurious choice that commands attention. This North American timber is not only beautiful but also a dream to work with, allowing for stunning finishes that enhance any custom furniture piece.
American White Oak
A versatile and elegant option, American White Oak boasts a light blonde tone that complements a wide array of design styles. Its intricate grain patterns, ranging from light brown to almost white, ensure that it harmonises seamlessly in any setting.
Blackbutt
Originating from Australia, Blackbutt timber displays a warm honey colour with striking dark gum veins. This exceptionally dense and sturdy wood maintains consistent tones across larger pieces, making it a reliable choice for quality furniture.
Australian Chestnut
Similar in character to Blackbutt, Australian Chestnut—often referred to as Southern Blackbutt—offers a more uniform colour palette and a lighter weight. This timber is ideal for substantial furniture designs where ease of handling is a consideration.
Messmate
Messmate is characterised by its light brown to beige-yellow hues and features a remarkably straight grain. This Australian timber is exceptionally consistent in colour across larger pieces, providing a refined look for any furniture application.
Each timber we use at Taigh Living is carefully selected for its unique qualities, ensuring that your furniture is not only beautiful but also built to last.
