Description - Based upon the European Oak Spades grade which offers some knotting and colour variation but without being overtly rustic, the Gotland has been through a process of brushing, smoking and oiling. The brushing process removes the softer wood within the surface grain to leave a texture on the surfcae, a process that happens naturally as wood is worn over time. Smoking is a process involving the heating of the wood which has the effect of both hardening the wood as well as chaning its colour. Unlike colouring wood with stain or oil, the heating process changes the colour of the wood according to how much tanin is contained within each cell. There, within a single piece the shade after this process can be quite varied. Again, this is an effect achieved after many years of the wood being exposed ot the enviroment. Finally the surface has been through an oiling process using white oil which has the effect of softening the varying darker tones left by prolonged smoking.
