OLD GROWTH FUMED WOODEN FLOORS










Fuming is a process historically reserved only for fine furniture, and we are one of the few flooring companies in America to fume wooden floors. The result is a unique and beautiful product, unlike any other on the flooring market today.
Old Growth boards are are available flat sawn, fine grained, wide and long. The Oak boards are predominantly "Euro" cut ( vertical grain on both edges with a small cathedral in the center) as well as pure quarter sawn. Also available Old Growth Cherry and Walnut. Boards are 5"-10" wide and 6'-12' long.

The fuming process brings out the deep natural color of the wood through a reaction with the tannic acid naturally contained within the boards. This process gives the floors a deep harmonious appearance that makes it unnecessary to use heavy stains when finishing the floor.

HISTORIC BARN FRAMES FOR REASSEMBLY


Barns are carefully deconstructed, documented and barcoded to both preserve the quality of the material and ensure that the architect or contractor can easily adapt to the specific needs.

BARNWOOD LUMBER: Barnwood Lumber is carefully reclaimed from siding, roof boards, granary boards, loft floors and other parts of vintage structures. Barnwood lumber is mixed species and can be sorted for broad general catagories of look, (brownd/greys, roughsawn/smooth). The variation of look from piece to piece is a characteristic of this product.
