About Antique Wood
For every piece of wood that is reclaimed, that is less pressure on current growing forest resources. We pride ourselves on bringing excellent quality materials back into service and extending the life of this resource. Unlike our current forest resources, this antique wood is not a renewable resource, as the quality of this wood is not being replaced, as new forestlands are not being allowed to mature beyond a certain age and size. Few trees today will yield the size and quality beams that these older mills were built with.
Featured Products
Sinker Pine
Origin
Reclaimed from the Mobile Bay in Alabama. Material is in beam form, heavy hardware throughout.
The pine was originally used for a dry dock to berth WWII submarines. Once the dock was no longer needed, it was sunk. The material has been sunk for years until recently when ThyssenKrupp needed it removed to make way for large cargo ships docking at its new plant in Mobile.
Unique Characteristics
- Tight growth ring structure
- Mineral desposits from bay water give the wood a unique patina - green, grey and black hues
