Left natural, an unvarnished piece simply silvers over time and asks nothing of you. A varnished piece keeps its rich sheen for a couple of years; after that the varnish may begin to flake or patch, at which point you can simply re-coat it, or let it weather back to that natural silvery-grey. Either way, your timber is fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"FreeRangeDesigns","offers":[{"title":"Douglas Fir \/ Unvarnished","offer_id":53500190523767,"sku":"FRD-OTH-WD-1060","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Oak \/ Unvarnished","offer_id":53500190556535,"sku":"FRD-OTH-WD-1061","price":2950.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Douglas Fir \/ Varnished (+£50)","offer_id":57213773545847,"sku":"FRD-OTH-WD-1060","price":2941.12,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Oak \/ Varnished (+£50)","offer_id":57213773578615,"sku":"FRD-OTH-WD-1061","price":3334.07,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0267\/7673\/1729\/files\/bespoke-giant-book-chair-6166043.jpg?v=1759411974","url":"https:\/\/freerangingdesigns.com\/en-de\/products\/bespoke-giant-book-chair","provider":"FreeRangeDesigns","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
