The hardest of the reclaimed species, Antique Oak is re-milled from a variety of sources, but primarily from the boards and beams of dismantled agricultural and mill buildings. Antique Oak is a mix of Red & White Oak for color and grain variation and is available in several grades for any design style.

Country Grade:
Available unfinished, plain sawn, with much of the naturally occurring wood character remaining such as tight knots, color variations, varying grain patterns, cracks, nail holes and insect tracks. This grade is primarily re-milled from old barn beams and occasional old boards and has a lighter, more uniform overall color.

Country Grade, Selected for White Oak:
Available unfinished and square edged, plain sawn, with all the character of Country Grade, but separated for White Oak only. This custom sort results in a more consistent light brown color that is most reminiscent of Historic Oak flooring. It is suitable for the most authentic restoration or reproduction designs.

Rustic Grade:

Available unfinished, plain sawn, with all the naturally occurring wood character remaining such as knots, worm holes & tracks, nail holes, color variations and varying grain patterns. Rustic Grade is primarily re-milled from antique barn siding and sheathing boards and occasionally the outside layer of old barn beams and has a generally deeper and more varied color range and more evidence of prior use such as sawmill marks, weathering cracks and larger knots & nail holes than Country Grade.


Old Original Surface Grade:
This grade is exclusively re-milled from antique Oak barn-siding and the outside edges of old Oak barn beams. The original sawmill marks from ages ago have been left untouched to give the appearance and texture of an old barroom floor - with all the naturally occurring wood character remaining such as knots, worm holes & tracks, nail holes, color variations and varying grain patterns. This grade is the most Rustic grade we offer. We burnish the surface to remove burrs and no jobsite sanding required, however, we do recommend the application of a finish to insure a well protected and most useful floor.
