At Heywood-Wakefield, our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and sustainability stands at the forefront of everything we do. Proudly crafting American-grown and American-made furniture using 100 percent Northern Yellow Birch, we uphold a tradition that blends timeless design with exceptional durability. We're thrilled to introduce two exciting new stains to our collection: Topaz and Onyx. Each shade enriches the natural beauty of our wood, offering exquisite new ways to experience the Heywood-Wakefield difference.
Sustainability at the Core
Our dedication to sustainability is inextricably linked to our choice of materials. Heywood-Wakefield exclusively sources lumber from sawmills that practice responsible forestry. They adhere to stringent environmental regulations and public policies preserving forests for future generations. This emphasis on sustainable sourcing ensures that our products are as kind to the planet as they are beautiful in your home.
Superior Craftsmanship for Lasting Durability
Heywood-Wakefield furniture is crafted from solid wood, promising strength and durability for decades to come. Unlike many manufacturers, we make minimal use of particle board or plywood. We reserve these materials only for smaller features such as drawer dividers and case goods backings. Each component is meticulously cut from a single piece of hand-selected lumber, employing the sturdiest reinforced joining methods. This attention to structural integrity ensures each piece can stand up to the rigors of daily life while maintaining its exquisite appearance.
Meet the New Finishes
Amber Finish: Reviving a Classic
Before diving into our new finishes, it’s worth highlighting our Amber finish. This refined, lighter version of the original Wheat and Champagne finishes captures the natural look of vintage Heywood-Wakefield furniture that has been lovingly stripped and refinished over time. It's a nod to our rich history, perfectly blending the past and present.
Topaz: Warm and Inviting
Our new Topaz finish brings a warm, medium-brown stain to our collection, reminiscent of Fruitwood or Teak. This stain enhances the natural beauty of the Northern Yellow Birch. Whether you're furnishing a cozy living room or an elegant dining space, Topaz adds inviting warmth and timeless style to any environment.
Onyx: Modern Sophistication
For those seeking a bolder yet enduring style, our Onyx finish delivers a sophisticated black stain that brilliantly highlights the wood grain. Onyx is perfect for modern interiors or for adding a dramatic focal point in any room. Despite its modern flair, this finish retains a timeless appeal, effortlessly blending with various design aesthetics.
Advanced Finish Technology
Utilizing Milesi pre-catalyzed lacquer finish technology, we offer superior protection compared to older nitrocellulose lacquers. This advanced finish ensures that your Heywood-Wakefield furniture retains its pristine condition. Just as our vintage pieces have stood the test of time, each of today's items undergoes meticulous hand-finishing. We ensure the preservation of craftsmanship that defines the Heywood-Wakefield legacy.
Heywood-Wakefield’s new Topaz and Onyx finishes allow you to infuse your home with the warmth and sophistication of beautifully crafted, sustainable furniture.
