Pickle tanks before reclamation
Cypress and Redwood…
Beautiful but Scarce
The beauty and durability of old-growth heartwood such as redwood,
cypress, and Douglas fir are hard to resist for anyone who is
looking to design unique outdoor structures and indoor wood accents.
Old-growth heartwoods from the 1800s and early 1900s have unique
characteristics that craftsmen have recognized for many years.
These old-growth redwood, cypress, and Douglas fir trees run the
risk of extinction. It is estimated that the Douglas fir tree
will be extinct in three years and the redwood tree extinct in
five years if they continue
to be the source of heartwoods for custom-designed structures.
So, how does one acquire an inventory of such beautiful, durable
selection of historical wood without destroying the environment’s
existing redwood, cypress, and Douglas fir trees
and forests?

Wood Offers a Selection of Old-Growth Cypress and Redwood
Those involved in the lumber industry and custom design business
have discovered that there are many existing structures built
from old-growth heartwoods from the 1800s and early 1900s.
Reclaiming wood from these structures serves as a means to
provide an inventory to build high-quality structures with
an intriguing history. Existing structures include pickle
tanks, beer barrels, barns, and buildings, just to name a
few.
