Rustic Plant Stand

Important Notes

As the wood we use has been very well weathered (they were stuck in a field at one time after all) you can get a wide variety of colours. From the natural wood tones, to greys from the ‘silvered’ weathered wood, to black from the reaction of the wood with steel fasteners and even a hint of green may remain from the tanalising used to help protect the wood from rot.

You will also see splits in the wood from weathering, and often evidence of various fasteners that were used to hold the wires and mesh to support the hops.
These all add to the interest of the piece, and we try to include these features and colour variations where possible.

If you just want a bland piece of ‘perfect’ wood furniture then these are not for you. If on the other hand you want something that tells a story, a talking point even, then these are definitely worth your consideration.

It's worth remembering that wood will continue to move even after its been turned into a piece of furniture. Warm dry rooms may cause the wood to shrink slightly and cause cracks to enlarge or appear. Conversely cold damp environments can cause the wood to swell.

Direct sunlight might also cause the timber to change colour.
