Fiddes on The Block: Behind the Scenes of Our Hard Wax Oil in Action
If you’re a fan of craftsmanship and Australian design, chances are you’ve been watching Channel 9’s The Block this season. But did you catch our proud Fiddes moment?
On Episode 20 Living & Dining Week, our Hard Wax Oil made its mark on national television. Featured front and centre in the dining rooms, thanks to a collaboration with renowned furniture maker Christian Cole.
Handcrafted Tables Meet a Trusted Finish
Christian Cole is no stranger to The Block, and this year he returned to teach the contestants a thing or two. Each team was tasked with coating their own dining table, custom-built by Christian and his team of master craftsmen.
To ensure the natural beauty of the timber shone through while offering long-lasting protection, Christian helped the contestants use our Hard Wax Oil, both clear and tinted versions.
Not only did our oil deliver a flawless finish on each table, but Sonny from House 4 proudly wore a Fiddes cap throughout the entire episode (we saw you, Sonny!).

More Fiddes Moments in the Bedroom Reveals
The week before the dining room reveal, Robby & Mat’s main bedroom featured a show-stopping American Walnut four-poster bed and matching bedside tables, custom made by the talented team at Timberwolf Design.
To enhance the natural beauty of the timber and provide lasting protection, they chose our Silk Hard Wax Oil. The perfect finish for high-end furniture.
It’s always a proud moment to see skilled Australian makers choose Fiddes for pieces that truly shine on the national stage.
