Sturdy new oak wood
If you’re all about smooth surfaces, we have the perfect sturdy new oak table for you. This new oak tabletop is sanded with a large sander to ensure a flatter finish before it is stained. It retains its rugged look because the natural knots are (naturally) still present. Because we don’t do smooth…
Humidity
Wood always expands and contracts to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the humidity in the environment. If the humidity is much higher than 60% or lower than 40%, or fluctuates continuously, this can cause cracks or splits. A constant humidity and temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius is best for your furniture.
Sturdy old oak wood
The search for Station7’s old oak is very special. We scour Eastern Europe in search of that special piece of wood. From old farms, barns, and dilapidated schools, we salvage the most beautiful old beams that exude history and character. Visible knots, grain, and cracks: that is what makes old oak wood unique.
Maintenance of oak wood
Station7 tables are available in a range of colors and are finished with different stains. In all cases, they are coated with a clear matte component lacquer. Maintenance is limited to normal cleaning with a damp cloth. With old oak tables, it may be necessary to remove crumbs, etc. with a vacuum cleaner with a soft attachment. Never use aggressive cleaning agents, as these can dissolve the lacquer layer, causing stains to penetrate the wood. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents either. It is important that wood can breathe, otherwise it may crack. So make sure that the wood is never covered for long periods of time with, for example, a plastic tablecloth. It is also important not to place hot objects (pans) directly on the wood. This will cause rings that cannot be removed. Wood discolors under the influence of daylight.
Wood is a natural material. Every tree is unique in color, pattern, and structure. It is normal for there to be differences between the wooden parts. The tabletop is a natural representation of the specific wood. from which the table is made. The table in your home may therefore differ in color, pattern, and structure from the table you viewed in our showroom.
What is buffalo leather?
Instead of regular cowhide, we use buffalo leather. Buffalo skin is more robust and weathered than the ‘smooth’ cowhide. This gives the hand-polished buffalo leather just the character that many living rooms and lifestyles require.

Features hand-polished buffalo leather
The processing of buffalo leather starts with cleaning, salting, and splitting. The buffalo leather is then tanned and, after a period of drying, we receive the buffalo leather uncolored at our factory. Our colleagues then set to work cutting, trimming, stitching, and filling the buffalo leather with a suitable and comfortable filling. The result of all these steps is, for example, a seat for a leather chair or armchair or a cushion for a leather sofa. To give the buffalo leather the desired color, it is then rubbed by hand with a dye. This unique coloring method ensures that the buffalo leather retains its natural appearance. Color differences are unavoidable.
You can request leather samples from us to get a good idea of the color. However, please note that there may be slight variations in color due to the different color nuances within a single hide. The natural markings remain visible and give each piece of furniture a unique, natural, and rugged look. After coloring, we apply a protective layer to protect the leather furniture from spills, for example, but also from external influences such as sunlight and scratches. We recommend not placing the furniture in direct sunlight.
Natural markings and creasing
Leather is made from animal hides. And because no two animals are alike, genuine leather furniture is also unique. Even the leather on two identical chairs will differ from each other. The natural markings visible in our leather furniture are caused by insect bites, wrinkles, skin folds, and healed scars, among other things. This makes our products unique; you can see the life that the buffalo led reflected in your furniture, as it were. The buffalo leather of a new chair or sofa usually looks smooth. But it doesn’t stay that way. Over time, natural creases will form. By sitting on it, you exert pressure on the buffalo leather and give off heat. The filling of the cushions also becomes softer. And that’s despite the fact that the buffalo leather is applied a little more generously to prevent the stitching from tearing. During use, more stretch occurs naturally, which inevitably leads to creases. This is also part of a natural product such as buffalo leather.
7 additional tips to enjoy your furniture for a long time:
| ✔️ | Sunlight and various types of artificial light cause leather to fade. Therefore, do not expose leather seating furniture to direct light. This will prevent the material from discoloring and/or fading prematurely. |
| ✔️ | Pet nails can damage your furniture. Even the most robust types of leather are not resistant to this. |
| ✔️ | Excessive heat dries out natural leather fibers. Therefore, never place your leather seating furniture too close to heat sources. If it is necessary to place a sofa near a radiator, make sure there is sufficient space between the floor, radiator, and seating furniture so that air can circulate properly and the moisture balance in the room and in the furniture is maximized. |
| ✔️ | Ensure good humidity. For living rooms, we recommend a humidity of 45-55%, with an ideal temperature between 18-22 degrees Celsius. |
| ✔️ | Never use aggressive substances on the leather. No turpentine, chlorine, or other chemical agents. |
| ✔️ | Be careful with sharp objects on the leather, such as belts or zippers. These can damage the leather. |
| ✔️ | If a stain appears on your furniture, do not rub it vigorously. Carefully remove the stain with a tissue and dab it clean with a damp, but not too wet, cloth. |
