The WaterRower Oxbridge is hand crafted in solid Cherrywood. Like
all woods, Cherrywood may vary in color from a red-brown to deep red. The wood
will darken in color with exposure to light. For this reason all WaterRower Cherrywood
components are kept in light free rooms to protect from shadowing. A new WaterRower
Oxbridge will therefore appear quite light in color. The wood will however darken
over time reaching a rich reddish hue.
Each machine has been hand finished
with three coats of Danish Oil giving a deep lustre an warmth to the wood.
Wood
has been chosen due to its marvellous engineering properties, primary amongst
these is its ability to absorb sound and vibration enhancing the WaterRower's
quietness and smoothness of use.
Cherrywood, like all woods used in WaterRower
construction, is a premium hardwood with incredible longevity and dimensional
stability.
For reasons of ecology, all woods are harvested from replenishable
forests.
