More about this piece
The Reclaimed Timber is sourced from salvage yards or old buildings, thus - helping to recycle such a lovely natural resource. All the timber we use is softwood. Reclaimed wood carries all its scars & imperfections from its previous life which may include nail holes, cuts, splits, knots and old construction marks, all adding their own character. The timber being a natural product, boasts varying grain patterns and colours ranging from pale cream-yellows to orange-browns to dark browns. Embrace the uniqueness and environmentally friendly OOAK piece of timber & craftsmanship. The timber is available in various wood stain colours to your choosing. The pipework is called black malleable iron pipe. This is the name given to this pipe from the milling industry. In fact, the pipe - mild steel - the colour is more dark grey with slight tint of blue to edge of black. Black Pipe is a generic term. It is not coated or painted black. It is the colour of the metal oxide formed during the mill production, so its natural mill finish.

How it's made
Once the timber is at our workshop, each piece is meticulously de-nailed & wire brushed to rid all the years of dirt buildup. It's then processed through the saws and planners and cut down to the required dimensions. The wood then undergoes an exhaustive sanding process with varying grits of sandpaper ensuring a flawlessly smooth finish. The timbers are married together, employing whichever techniques are required, transforming into a magnificent showpiece boasting its unique grain pattern and character. This stage also involves the selection of the optimal faces that are seen. This also applies to the pipework that may also bear scars or pitting, colour differentials, and general milling marks. Given our endeavour to create " Rustic Farmhouse " pieces, we opt for the most rustic faces. These scars have a life to show - not to be hidden away.
Any imperfection such as a split will not impede the integrity or function of the piece.
