Aesthetics: The fuming process transforms the natural yellowish-brown larch heartwood into rich walnut to deep chocolate brown tones with a "light and shadow effect". This deep color is permanent and penetrates the wood fibers, unlike a surface stain. Durability: Fuming enhances the wood's UV stability, making it more resistant to bleaching from sun exposure. Larch solid wood is notably harder than most other conifers. Stability: The fuming process is said to make the resulting veneer more elastic and easier to work with than untreated larch.
