Goedman is now goedman+ooms. And we’re very busy renovating. Until August 18, we can’t take new orders. After that, we’ll work by appointment only. Read more.
Yes. And no. Because not all wood species are amenable to becoming frames. Moreover, every tree has lived a life. Which results in a unique grain pattern. goedman+ooms buys trees locally whenever possible and vets them with a keen eye for the properties of the trunk. Ash, sugar maple, and European beech? We usually have ‘more than sufficient’ in stock. Applewood, walnut, cherry, plane, hornbeam, swamp white oak, and black alder might take a little luck. 😉
Whether we use kiln-dried ‘standard wood’ or personally procured tree trunks that we either store wet or dry under the painterly Dutch sky: we always select top-quality materials. And owe a debt of gratitude to our partner, the critically optimistic cabinet artist and wood connoisseur par excellence, Wilfred Kalf!
As we ‘framously’ say in our industry: it’s not all local wood that glitters. Sometimes a different material simply suits a work better. Other times, a mix of materials can hit the visual spot. We’ll gladly help you discover the (im)possibilities.
