Old Growth Red Oak

The Story Behind Our Old Growth Red Oak Wood

Mischa happened upon this tree in his own neighborhood one evening while he was out walking his dog.

After careful examination Nicholas surmised this red oak must have grown here under the canopy of the great white pine forest that used to cover most of this region.

Usually with red oaks you find rather large annular rings. On this tree we found extremely tight growth rings and patterns. Nicholas had never seen red oak growth rings quite like this before.

This wood was then fully impregnated with various colors with spectacular results.
