The Southwestern furnishings are finished with a hand-rubbed Linseed Oil. You may also request unfinished or finished with a
Dark Linseed Oil (available oak

recommend ordering unfinished and applying your own finish.

second growth solid Eastern Maple or solid Moso Bamboo (strips of

The Placitas comes standard with a textured sunburst carving.
The Sunburst is available without color (natural wood), or in a
beautiful muted blue.
Pictured at top of page is the
Placitas End Table (20 x 24 x 16h). The Placitas Coffee Table (20 x 48
x 16h) is similar
to our Standard Coffee Table, except it sports a stunning sunburst
design on one side of the long
end of the table.
More About Bamboo:
Bamboo is another ecologically friendly and beautiful choice for your
platform bed frame and furnishings. Since Bamboo is a grass, Bamboo
grows and matures much quicker than a tree. Within five years of
sprouting, the walls of the culms (the Bamboo stalks) will have
thickened and hardened and will be ready for harvest. That means every
year 15 to 20 percent of the forest can be harvested without clear
cutting. Compare that to a hardwood forest and you will see that Bamboo
is a very productive and sustainable plant material for making
furniture. Unlike quick growing pine (aka "trash pine") trees that many
timber companies have planted in place of native trees and forest, and
take at least 25 years to grow large enough to harvest for pulp or
cheap framing lumber, Bamboo grows quickly and has fine building
qualities. Bamboo is also very hard--harder than rock maple, which is
one of the hardest of North American trees. Using Bamboo means less
dings and dents and a more durable product. Since the very straight
culm is split and not sawn, there are no curls in the grain, which
means Bamboo is much less likely to break.
Our Bamboo boards have a beautiful exotic look and are available in
standard (very similar in color and shade to Eastern Maple) or
caramelized (which is similar in color and shade to our Red Oak). Both
are available in Linseed Oil finish (darken the color only very
slightly--mainly the Linseed Oil protects the Bamboo) or
unfinished. Bamboo boards are constructed by laminating strips of
Bamboo together in order to create strong dimensional lumber for
building fine furniture. This is a very effective way to construct
Bamboo lumber. However please note, although rare, small cracks may
sometimes be present and are considered normal in laminated Bamboo
boards. These cracks, if present, will not be over 1/32” in
width and
will not affect the structural integrity of the furniture. New Bamboo may have a slightly grassy scent which should dissipate over time.
