Red Oak:
Classic Grain with Enduring Appeal

  Red Oak is a time-tested hardwood known for its open grain and strength. Its pronounced texture brings a familiar, traditional look that adapts well to a range of design styles—from classic to transitional.
  With Ohio Certified Stains (OCS), Red Oak takes on a wide spectrum of finishes, from light and natural to deep, rich tones. The open grain highlights stain beautifully, making it a favorite for projects that celebrate the natural look of real wood.

Recommendation for Designers & Contractors:
  • Choose Red Oak with OCS stains when your project calls for visible grain, durability, and timeless style.
  • Works especially well in traditional or craftsman-inspired cabinetry, where wood texture is a visual feature.
  • OCS stain options allow you to create anything from light, casual tones to deep, dramatic finishes while preserving the character of the wood.
