Vintage Woods Collection

Reclaimed Wood Flooring- a revitalized spirit

5”,7”,9” Vintage Hickory Skip Sawn Micro Bevel

Experience will forever mark the soul… In an effort to create an atmosphere respecting tradition and simpler times, many homeowners are embracing the use of reclaimed lumber into their projects. It would be an interesting story to learn what some of this vintage lumber has experienced in its prior life. Wood flooring made from timbers of an early 20th century barn that once withstood incredible storms, sheltered countless family reunions or witnessed the birth of a newborn colt. Stories forever embodied into the character of the wood, delivering a respected patina that could never be manufactured or replicated. Our Vintage Woods Collection of solid reclaimed wood flooring will bring a unique, almost lifelike spirit into your project that is simply not found in today’s newly harvested wood. Call one of our wood flooring specialists today and learn how our Vintage Woods Collection may be the perfect choice for your reclaimed wood flooring project.
