Wood Finishes

Among our many available custom furniture finishes, we offer several “wiped” options. Their beauty lies in the fact that they let the many variations of the wood pieces used in the manufacturing of our furniture show through. It is all of these variations that create the uniqueness of your furniture. Our finishes enhance the natural beauty of wood. The color of the wood grain can vary from pale to dark and its random patterns are solely natural. They provide depth and elegance to your furniture while showcasing the exceptional natural characteristics of the wood color.

Note that the color of certain wood species, such as American black walnut, white oak, birch and white ash, changes with age. Although Huppé uses specialized varnishes to delay this natural process, it is perfectly normal for your furniture to slowly change from a grayish to a yellowish color. This lovely honey hue will enhance the natural beauty of your furniture.

Note that the finish on your furniture will be fully cured 21 days after the date of manufacture. Within this time frame, you must use your furniture with care to avoid damaging the finish.

How to Ensure Your Huppé wood Furniture Retains its Beauty Long Term

• Regularly dust your furniture with a soft cloth.
• Wash your piece of furniture with a soft cloth dipped in a mild, fragrance-free soap solution, then wipe dry.
• For your comfort and to protect your furniture, maintain relative humidity between 30% and 40%.
• Avoid dragging your furniture when moving it.
• Avoid placing your furniture near radiators, heat vents and wood stoves.
• Immediately clean any spills off the surface of your furniture.
• Never use window cleaning products. They contain ammonia, which can damage the finish.
• Avoid commercial polishes or waxes. These products could cause yellowing of your furniture.
• Do not place any rubber surfaces on a wooden surface.
• Do not place your furniture in direct sunlight. It could become discolored.
• Avoid placing hot objects or heating devices on any wooden surface. Doing so could damage the finish.
• Never write on a piece of paper placed directly on top of a wooden surface. The surface could become embossed with marks.
