Finish details Toggle icon

The semi-transparent linseed oil stain is designed to balance raw, natural beauty with color longevity. It absorbs into the wood, conditioning and enhancing the grain. The linseed finish is an excellent choice for owners who want to enjoy the inherent beauty of the wood as it weathers. The siding can be left to patina or re-oiled at any time to freshen up the color.

Suyaki

DIY: Blemish Touch-Up

Our Yakisugi Shou Sugi Ban siding ages beautifully with minimal upkeep. It naturally develops a rich patina or can be re-oiled anytime to restore its original vibrancy. Suyaki stays black for decades, with re-oiling extending its deep color even longer.
