Over 100 Years Of History
Founded in Sydney in 1922 by Percy Watson and John ‘Jack’ Feast, the brand was built on a simple belief: that timber, one of nature’s most enduring materials, deserves to be enhanced and preserved with care. From its earliest days producing traditional stains and varnishes, Feast Watson set out to create high-quality coatings that bring out the character of wood while protecting it for years to come.
Bringing the Beauty of Timber to Life
Craftsmanship has always been at the heart of what we do. Every product is designed to work with timber, not against it, enhancing its natural grain, enriching its colour and ensuring it continues to age beautifully over time.
As Australian homes and lifestyles have evolved, so too has Feast Watson. From its origins in traditional wood finishes, the brand has expanded into a complete range of oils, varnishes and specialty coatings, supporting both interior and exterior timber projects across decks, floors, furniture and more.
Trusted by Australians
Over generations, Feast Watson has earned the trust of DIYers, trades and professionals alike. Iconic products such as Prooftint™ and Black Japan have stood the test of time, remaining go-to solutions for achieving rich, lasting finishes while showcasing the natural character of timber.
Today, as part of DuluxGroup, Feast Watson continues to combine heritage with innovation, developing premium woodcare solutions that meet the needs of modern Australian homes, while staying true to the craftsmanship and care the brand was founded on.
