Resawn Oak: Refined to produce a timeless artifact that is rich in patina, texture, and character
Resawn Oak Beams are milled from a combination of Aged Sawn and Hewn beams via a band saw. An antique resawn beam provides a refined appearance that minimizes the rustic characteristics common is both hewn and aged sawn beams such as deep adze marks and distinct kerf marks. Once the beams are de-metaled and cleaned, each beam is carefully milled via a wood-mizer band saw, which produces a fresh cut face that displays a combination of old growth grain and aged color with residual reclaimed character such as oxidized nail holes, bolt holes, mortise pockets, rafter notches, and seasoned checking. Our antique re-sawn beams come from old growth trees, and have aged over time to produce a product rich in patina with a refined texture.
