About the Ebony finish

A rich, ebonised finish made from rosewood timber, Ebony looks beautiful when paired with Polished Brass or Polished Nickel, accentuating the contrast between the dark, dramatic tones of the wood and the highly reflective metals. A perfect choice for period homes and interiors. The dark finish is achieved using a very traditional technique whereby a darkening solution is applied to the bare, high quality rosewood timber, which alters the tannins in the wood to create this rich, elegant finish.

Care and maintenance

Products should be cleaned regularly with a soft cloth and wiped over with a wax-based furniture polish like the 'Maintenance Wax' (33002). This will help remove dirt, fingerprints and watermarks, while offering some protection against discoloration, or drying of the timber. To increase the mechanical life expectancy of your products, we recommend regular oiling of all moving parts using the ‘3-in-1 Oil’ (92337). This process is also highly recommended during initial installation.
