I tried getting some pics for a friend when he was making a desk and couldn't seem get the picture to look anything like the actual colour. If you have ever seen rustic oak furniture, its very close to that, which is great for me as it matches in with the furniture in the room. I tried Rustins Danish oil to start with and it went too yellow for my liking, so i sanded it back to bare wood and used the acacia Osmo oil.

One other benefit of finishing it yourself is you can add a rounded edge to the front and use a finer sandpaper on top. My friend ended up paying the extra for a cut to size/oiled top and it just had a sharp square edge, which isn't ideal for a desk.
