What is the purpose of a stain and finish on my cane?Updated 3 months ago

The stain is simply a choice of coloring the wood itself to a tone you would like, not the natural color of the wood itself. Often we do not recommend this on a Hickory with Heart or a Pure Hickory Heart cane because it detracts from the natural beauty of these wood types. However we can stain any wood type. We recommend the tung oil finish on all of our premium canes as it serves to preserve and protect the wood itself. A cane with a tung oil finish is sealed but still breathes which helps maintain a healthy cane for years to come, with just a monthly application of mineral oil.
