If you’re looking to add a special piece of furniture to your home that will add instant character, consider those made with reclaimed wood salvaged from old buildings and barns. Rich with an aged patina that is lacking in new wood furniture, these renewed solid wood furnishings are stable and strong and will likely last for centuries to come!  Styles ranging from rustic to ultra modern will suit any home.

Reclaimed woods, sourced mainly in the USA, include such species as:  Chestnut, Teak, Heart Pine, Cherry, Douglas Fir, Hickory, Rock Elm, Cypress and Redwood.

Where can you find these fantastic furnishings?  Read on…
