Picklewood
Prior to the onset and broad adoption of refrigeration technology, food preservation was a much more complex task. Pickling was a primary method of food preservation and a lifeline for many homes. Large amounts of lumber were required to construct pickling vats. Today these vats are no longer necessary in such quantity, and they provide an excellent source of reclaimed lumber. The compounds used in the pickling process add beautiful character to the wood. We use picklewood douglas fir which has a yellow-blond tone and strong, straight grain and picklewood redwood which has a beautiful deep red/brown tone.
