HANA FURNITURE
Habitat's furniture is craftsman made with great care and attention to
produce distinctive pieces that will bring pleasure for years to come.
Each item of furniture is hand finished and uses traditional cabinet
making techniques to ensure strength and longevity.
The Hana range is handmade predominantly from kiln dried solid oak
and oak veneers, from managed European forests. All carcasses are
oak veneer for structural integrity and stability.
- The surface of Hana is oiled to enhance the natural colour and
highlight the beautiful features of oak such as grain, knots, shading
and medullary rays. The natural variations in grain and wood colour
ensure every piece is different and unique.
With careful use these finely produced pieces will give many years of
satisfaction.
FEATURES OF NATURAL WOOD
Wood is a beautiful natural material. It is important to understand its
unique properties; these properties should not be mistaken for flaws.
Wood Shading and Grain
Each piece will have a slightly different grain pattern. Variation in
colour, shading and grain between different products and within the
same product can occur; this is a normal feature of all natural wood
furniture.
Knots
Knots are a natural property of all real wood furniture; they do not
affect performance, and add interest to each piece.
Medullary Rays
These markings are created where wood is cut across the grain
producing interesting features such as growth rings and flecks.
Expansion
All timber will display movement from season to season because of
changes in atmospheric temperature and humidity.
LEVELLING UNITS
It is essential that your furniture is positioned on a level surface to
ensure doors hang correctly and open smoothly.
- Products with opening doors have adjustable feet that may be
screwed in or out to square the unit if the floor is not level.
