Why Oak?

The natural choice for hardwood conservatory and orangery construction

European Oak
Quercus Robur

Grown across Europe from the British Isles to Eastern Europe, the European Oak (Quercus Robur) is at the heart of our architectural tradition. Flourishing in our temperate, changeable climate, examples of its ability to stand the test of time are everywhere. The half-timbering of our great stately homes and the magnificent antique hammer-beamed roofs of our ancient churches, show how this most beautiful of hardwoods has inspired generations of carpenters and carvers.

Oak will not only last for centuries, but will also grow even more attractive as it weathers and ages. What more suitable material could there be for your hardwood conservatory or orangery?

Only Richmond Oak offers the combination of a natural, treated hardwood interior with an exterior painted to blend with your existing architecture.
