ARTISAN DISTRESSED FINISH COLLECTION
Artisan Collection ® Distressed Finish for Premium Series Doors
A GlassCraft exclusive — the Artisan Distressed Finish options feature a patented process to beautifully create high-definition distress marks and enhanced wood grain patterns to simulate old, antique doors. Scuffs and scratches, wood checks and cracks, worm holes and wear marks are randomly applied to the surface of the door. These marks are then enhanced with our patented finish process to create the perfect shabby-chic entryway statement! This finish process enhances the stains, grains, and distress marks with a long- lasting, multi-layered, and multi-colored finish. This 12-step finish process combines multiple coats of stains and clear urethane topcoats with ultraviolet inhibitors to preserve the beautiful appearance of the door. All of the colors shown on these pages are available on all Premium Series composite doors with a wood grain. These are not available on smooth doors without a wood grain or on any Value or Pro Series doors. Artisan Distressed finishes are available on Premium Series doors in 3 wood grains: Mahogany, Knotty Alder, and Fir. Please Note: The photos on this page and throughout this catalog offer an indication of the actual appearance of the colors, but due to variations in the texture, grain pattern, and colors used in this hand- finished process, the actual appearance may vary.
Artisan prefinishing with distress marks is perfect for achieving authentic rustic details. The faux mortise and tenon pegs shown in the inset photo are standard on Artisan Distressed Craftsman doors.
