Oak English European Wood Veneer InformationOk here is the deal with European Oak. It is native to Europe, Northern Africa, and Western Asia, and is more abundent in France, Poland, Yugoslavia, and the Baltic Countries. It is the most common forest tree in Great Britain, especially Wales, and is found in stands and mixed forests where it can often be the dominent species. English Brown Oak is the product of trees that have been stained brown by the beef-steak fungus (Fistulina hepatica). Supposedly the fungus is killed during the seasoning process. Bog Oak is exactly what it sounds like. European Oak that is buried in peat bogs for centuries under goes a chemical change and before you know it you have bog Oak. Fumed Oak takes on a weathered appearance when Oak is exposed to ammonia fumes in an air-tight compartment. From what I understand the more you fume it the darker it gets. This isn't something new. Gustav Stickley's original woark was made of quartersawn white oak and fumed. It is also marketed as pickled Oak. Oaks native to the United States are typically substituted for the common type of English Oak since they have the same uses. Most often the European Oaks coming into the North American market show up as Fumed Oak (Pickled Oak), Bog Oak and Brown Oak. We keep Brown Oak in our inventory but so far we only bring in Fumed Oak and Bog as needed.
