Staining
Staining is the application of a chemical solution (stain) to the surface of wood. This changes the colour of the wood, but the natural grain remains. The walnut steps of the Minka stairs are not made of real walnut wood, but of beech wood that has been stained to a walnut look. For additional protection of the wood, our stair treads are also coated with a high-quality layer of varnish.
