Wood types

Our products are available in four different types of wood: beech, oak, olive and walnut. 

Marvin's products are made in Europe (m.u.v. some olive wood products, which are mainly from Italy but can also come from Tunisia).

Colour differences
wood

As we work with natural products, it happens that the products are not completely identical in colour. The parts of the tree, from which our products are made, consist of different colours (a pallet from pink to brown). By matching wood in the right way, we can achieve sophisticated colour and unique product character.

If you prefer boards with possibly a homogeneous colour, please let us know.
