COLORED LACQUER FINISHES HouseWerks currently offers two colored lacquer finishes that can selected for any of the three styles of shelving. These finishes are opaque. The color of the wood doesn't show, but the grain of the wood is visible through the finish. In some woods, like red oak and white oak, the grain is quite pronounced. For shelves, most customers order Paint-Grade Shelving if a Colored Lacquer Finish is to be ordered. For vertical supports there is only one grade of lumber used. The most frequently requested hardwood for vertical supports is Poplar, because of its lower price. However, poplar is the softest hardwood we offer.   Black Lacquer Finish Black Lacquer is only available in two sheens:  Glossy and Satin, Below are links to three photos of Classic Designer Style Shelving with a Black Lacquer Finish. The first two photos are of shelves made from Red Oak. Because of the depth of the wood grain, a two-tone finish is achieved giving the shelves a black and figured gray look. The appearance, however, depends upon the angle at which light hits the grain. Four Red Oak Shelves with the Black Lacquer Finish Close-Up of one of the Red Oak Shelves with the Black Lacquer Finish.
