Antique heart pine flooring is one of our most popular woods due to its gorgeous color tones and attractive vertical grain patterns. Color variations range from a creamier pinkish-tan on the sapwood to rich golds, oranges and reds found in the heartwood. This beautiful natural wood can also feature seafoam green shades because of the patina.Â
Whether you’re revitalizing a historic structure or furnishing a modern home, our antique reclaimed heart pine flooring will effortlessly complement your interior decor. Its tight grain patterns and well-defined growth rings make it an ideal choice for both contemporary and turn-of-the-century homes. Heart pine floors are the heaviest and hardest softwood in the world, ensuring long-term durability. With a Janka rating of 1,225, heart pine is softer than red oak and white oak but harder than walnut or maple, a great option for your floors!
While it was widely used throughout our history for traditional flooring, construction and dock pilings, reclaimed heart pine remains the timber of choice for many. During the industrial revolution, old growth heart pine was sourced from longleaf pine trees and southern yellow pine trees. Today, heart pine is reclaimed predominantly from old buildings and warehouses across America. Each reclaimed pine wood plank is unique with nail holes, pest marks and natural weathering.Â
