Classic vintage
Custom Home, July-August, 2005 by Stephani L. Miller
Distinctive cooper's marks, vineyard notations, date stamps, and winemaker initials are all prominently on display in a line of hardwood flooring produced from reclaimed wine barrels. Stained and aged by wine and oxidation, the wood is allowed to retain its natural colorations from its life as a wine barrel.
The Vintage Barrel collection of flooring is crafted from barrels made of clear grade quartersawn American and French white oak. The barrels are re-sawn, milled, wire brushed, and then finished to preserve the markings and red patina. Planks come in random widths and lengths between 1 and 3 inches wide and up to 3 feet long.
