American White Ash

Comprising a pale cream tone, American White Ash provides a striking contrast to darker timbers. Its grain pattern is typically straight and can occasionally exhibit subtle waves. Due to its strong composure, its hardiness ensures resilience, while its mild elasticity grants shock resistance, making this hardwood a staple timber to craft interior furniture and architectural applications. Over time, the timber may darken slightly.

Over time, The Streaks timber requires re-application of oil to maintain their original finish. Bankston recommends a clear matt finish oil, which is available from most hardware stores. Apply the oil as per manufacturers’ instructions, dabbing gently and wiping dry with a clean cloth. Only apply oil when needed. 

Unwanted imperfections or spills can be touched up by gently rubbing back with a household scouring pad, followed by cleaning with warm water and a natural soap. Let the timber dry and apply a clear matt finish oil to finish. 
Each piece is a testament to artisanal Australian-made craftmanship and will intensify in tone thanks to natural oils working their magic. Hand-finished with a hard wax oil applied with a dry cloth, the surfaces display a low lustre matte finish. The American White Ash used in The Streaks collection is FSC-certified, ensuring responsible forestry management.
