Custom Finish Program
Sherrill Occasional offers many finish options that make it easy to customize your furniture and your home. Create a unique look by mixing finish combinations. The opportunities are limited only by your imagination. Sherrill Occasional offers three levels of finishes varying in application time and difficulty. The complexity of the finish is reflected in the terms Standard, Premium, and Artisan.
Sherrill Occasional uses the highest quality materials in all of its products. Finishes are not guaranteed to be a perfect match as each piece is finished by our Artisans’ hands. Wood, like all natural materials, has inherent disparities in color and grain pattern. There will be variation in color, texture and shading. Every finish was created for a specific wood species. Variation will occur when a finish is used on a different wood species and can change the overall look of the finish. We strive to provide an accurate representation of all finishes on our website, but due to changes in lighting, types of monitors, and photography limitations, color variation is possible.

Striping Options
Many items lend themselves to hand-striping applications which can enhance the design and customize the piece to one’s individual taste. Striping patterns are predetermined by the factory. Special striping pattern requests may be submitted for approval and may require a sketch and additional charges if deemed necessary. If a style has physical distressing, we will rub through the areas of decoration to appear appropriately aged; if there is no physical distressing the decoration will not have rub through.
