Can we send you color samples of our hand rubbed oil finish ?
As a wood finish, we use Velvit Oil, a specially formulated product that stains, fills, seals, protects, and beautifies all in one coat. Two coats are applied to give more luster and depth to the wood, then a Lemon Oil polish is rubbed in. .Oil finish is resistant to alcohol, hot liquids, common stains and will never crack, or peel. Choose from: Natural, Fruit wood, Danish Walnut or your special mix.

Customer Satisfaction is Our Motivation

Dear Dale and Kathy:
Just wanted to let you know what a hit the cedar chest was for my nephew and his future bride. They opened it at the wedding shower and were totally thrilled! It was a good thing it was the last gift opened because the two of them spent so much time opening and closing the lid, inspecting the 'beautiful wood' and 'terrific craftsmanship'. It was truly the best gift we could have given them. Aricia's father is a wood worker also - he builds custom cupolas - so he was duly impressed with your creation. If you ever need a reference for you work, please don't hesitate to send them my way. The quality of the product is excellent and the whole experience of dealing with both of you was very pleasant. Thanks for helping make our gift one that will be cherished for years.
Yours truly,

J and P Nelson, Menominee, MI
