Reclaimed Oak Flooring

What are the characteristics and uses of Reclaimed Oak?

White Oak and Red Oak woods are probably best known for their color and intense graining patterns. Quarter sawn and cross cut oak display a distinct vivid grain pattern including interesting wavy and concentric circle patterns as well as unique rays emanating from the center of the sapwood. Older, reclaimed oak has a better grain pattern than new oak wood. Reclaimed oak will also sometimes have worm holes or other types of patina and texture that is desirable in some application.

Oak is an extremely hard wood making it durable and tough. It has been popular literally for centuries for use in making architectural elements, as well many types of furniture. The wood polishes to a fine sheen and develops a great patina through age and oxidation. Quarter sawn oak is the most popular way to use oak in furniture. One of the most iconic visual images of wood is the use of walnut wood as a building material.

Many of the greatest treasures of American furniture you’ll find in museums are made of Oak. Available in Europe and North America, examples of oak wood furniture date back in the US to 300 years ago – and in Europe much longer than that. How’s that for durability?

White Oak and Red Oak is a great material for use as a type of reclaimed hardwood flooring due to it durability. In recent years, Oak is gaining popularity as a flooring material due to it golden color (and ability to take darker and lighter stains). Antique Oak Wood Flooring is a great choice as a reclaimed material for flooring or other reclaimed wood applications..

Reclaimed Oak is a great choice for flooring, panels, furniture, and countertops.
