Crazy big timber for the right setting! Nice color. Lots of flat finish coats will protect it but it didn’t destroy it’s original authenticity. We love this piece! Nice size. Original mortises. Antique hardware hooks on both ends for fireplace tools. This piece has it all.

Very Rare Grain Etched with End Hardware. Stained brown/ black.
It’s hard to know how just to describe this piece in words. It is big. It is rare. It is unique. It is beautiful. It is well made. It is historic. Its a terrific conversation piece. The “etching” on it was caused from over a hundred years of grain from the mill flowing over it. Both the ends have hardware to hang fireplace tools from that were reclaimed from the Big Jo Flour Mill in Wabasha, MN. circa 1874. Our shop consensus is that it is the best piece we’ve made this year. It feels good to say out loud that this is a very special mantel for a very special setting. It has it all. Nothing else to say.

Magnificently Aged VERY RARE Rustic Mantel. Dark brown / black.
I’ve been working with reclaimed timbers since 1999 and THIS is the finest example of naturally aged beams I’ve ever seen. If there was such a thing as a “Reclaimed Timber Museum”, this piece would be in it! I’ve been saving it for many years for myself, but my wife says “sell it!” For anyone that values what nature can do over time, this piece is for you. Wish I could take credit for it, but t’was Nature that made this piece.

Rustic Two Piece Shelf with Original Hand Hewing.
Very nice example of how the barn builders in the 1800’s milled their timbers. Original hand hewing has been sanded nicely so it’s smooth to the touch but still shows plenty of it’s character and history. Stained dark brown. Lovely piece if I say so myself.

Architectural Arched Barn Brace. Mantel or Shelf
This is a very cool piece! It is one of ten similar that I have available.
It’s a perfect example of salvaged architectural timber. It was reclaimed from the “Bear Lake Farm” barn in northern Wisconsin. This magnificent barn was one of the largest in the entire state. Possibly in the entire world I’m told. Built by German Immigrants in the early 1900’s. This brace helped hold up the bottom floor where the milking cows were kept. I’ve milled it up some, planed off the old milk wash stain and sanded it smooth to bring out it’s wonderful grain
