White Oak Floating Shelves
White oak is one of the most popular furniture grade woods used in the US and is associated with traditional, craftsman and mission style furniture. Its high durability and unique grain pattern make it a contender as being one of the easiest species to recognize.
Its open grain makes this an easy hardwood to stain, and allows us to get a little more creative with stain choices. It'll look great either stained to closely match your other furniture, or sealed with a clear, natural finish. If you'd like to apply your own stain, we do offer the ability to purchase these white oak floating shelves unfinished as well.
