Wood Origin Archives

When it comes to salvaging and preserving old wood, we not only source quality structures, but also those with unique or historical significance. It is important to us to pass along as much information as possible to our customers and audience. 

While not every structure meets the criteria to be expanded upon, those that do will be added to our library. Scroll back in time as you navigate through our wood origin stories and perhaps you will learn more about the very source of your reclaimed wood product!
