Often massive sized, from the 18th and 19th centuries, hand selected beams, rough-sawn and reclaimed from old and disused manors, barns and estates, can be used as elements in traditional or French designed homes in ceilings, kitchens, lofts and flooring. The beams yield a lighter colour than antique boards and are the most rustic, retaining their original characteristics: cracks, worm holes and nail marks. These reclaimed French oak beams create stunning and authentic elements that are completely unrivalled by any new products.  The sizes range from 1.7m to 4m in length and we can source up to 6m for specific orders.  Profiles vary from 80mm, 100mm and up to 200m.

Weathered French Oak timber is a unique, reclaimed product that will add character and rustic charm to any architectural facade. The timber has been naturally dried for decades in the intense sun and extreme winters of Europe, creating a perfectly dried, strong and true reclaimed board. The sizes ranges from 800mm to 2.5m in length, with varying thicknesses, generally in the range of 8mm to 12mm.
