A finish like this can make a small table, front or decorative piece a focal point. In a quieter interior, the timber and wall colours need to be considered together. Look at the balance of light and dark across the surface as well as the colour name.<\/p><\/div><\/section><section id=\"asx-chapter-1\" class=\"asx-chapter asx-with-image\"><div class=\"asx-copy\"><p class=\"asx-kicker\">02 \/ A CLOSER LOOK<\/p><h2>Colour on carved surfaces<\/h2><p>The carved example does not appear as one uniform tone: raised and recessed areas read differently, changing the way the pattern is seen. A sample helps define the desired effect for new work. An older piece needs assessment of its existing finish and the character to be retained; one sanding or painting approach will not suit every antique.<\/p><\/div><figure><img src=\"https:\/\/aslanconstruction.com.tr\/wp-content\/plugins\/aslan-project-stories\/assets\/oyma-ahsap-renk.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aslanconstruction.com.tr\/wp-content\/plugins\/aslan-project-stories\/assets\/oyma-ahsap-renk-sm.jpg 720w, https:\/\/aslanconstruction.com.tr\/wp-content\/plugins\/aslan-project-stories\/assets\/oyma-ahsap-renk.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width:767px) 92vw, 55vw\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" alt=\"Close view: contrasting surface tones make the carved pattern legible.\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><figcaption>Close view: contrasting surface tones make the carved pattern legible.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/section><section id=\"asx-chapter-2\" class=\"asx-chapter asx-with-image\"><div class=\"asx-copy\"><p class=\"asx-kicker\">03 \/ A CLOSER LOOK<\/p><h2>A dark finish changes with the light<\/h2><p>The dark close-up shows grain and reflections together.
