Why does some of the wood have knots or dark spots?
Natural woods will not be consistent in their appearance by the very nature of being “natural”. Heartwood and sapwood will vary in color and contrast and all wood may contain some natural defects, such as knots. We make all efforts to minimize the impact of these variations, but it is not possible to avoid them all. You always have the option to inquire about and pay for “clear” or “superior” grade materials which will all but eliminate defects and variations. If you are interested in clear/superior, contact Sales and we will answer your questions.
