Original hand-hewn surfaces
The visible tool marks are part of the original character of the timber. Unlike newly machined imitation surfaces, genuine reclaimed beams show naturally developed texture, age and individual workmanship.

Reclaimed timber expertise
Hand-hewn reclaimed wood beams – expert knowledge
Genuine reclaimed beams are not uniform industrial products. Their surface, dimensions and traces of previous use are part of their character. Here we explain what matters when selecting reclaimed timber for interiors, furniture and architectural projects.
What matters in practice
Understanding genuine reclaimed beams
Every beam is unique
Colour, grain, cracks, knots, old joints and traces of previous construction can vary from beam to beam. For projects with several pieces, the overall visual effect should therefore be considered rather than expecting identical individual beams.
From interiors to structural projects
Reclaimed beams can be used for decorative ceiling beams, wall features, room dividers, furniture and individual timber projects. Structural applications are possible only when the selected timber and dimensions are assessed for the specific project and the required structural calculations are available.
Expert answers
Questions about reclaimed wood beams
These answers focus on the practical differences that matter when choosing genuine reclaimed timber for a project.
What is the difference between a genuine reclaimed beam and a new beam with an antique finish?
A genuine reclaimed beam has already been used in an earlier building or timber construction. Its colour, surface, tool marks and traces of use developed over time. A newly produced beam can imitate an aged appearance, but it does not have the same material history or naturally developed patina.
Which wood species are available for our hand-hewn reclaimed beams?
Our range includes reclaimed beams in larch, spruce, pine and fir. Availability and appearance depend on the individual stock because genuine reclaimed timber is sourced from existing historic material rather than produced as a completely uniform series.
Are cracks, old joints and colour differences normal in reclaimed beams?
Yes. Natural cracks, knots, old joinery details, tool marks and colour variations are characteristic of genuine reclaimed timber. These features are part of the authentic appearance and mean that no two beams look exactly the same.
Can reclaimed beams be used as decorative ceiling beams or wall features?
Yes. Decorative ceiling beams, wall features, room dividers and half-timbered interior details are typical applications. The appropriate dimensions and fixing method depend on the substrate, beam size and the intended design.
Can reclaimed beams also be used for load-bearing construction?
Potentially, yes – but not simply on the basis of appearance or age. For a load-bearing application, the specific timber, cross-section, condition and project requirements must be assessed and the necessary structural calculations must be carried out. Decorative and structural use should therefore be clearly distinguished during planning.
How should I choose several reclaimed beams for one room?
For several beams, consider the overall composition of colour, surface and dimensions. Genuine reclaimed timber naturally varies, so a visually balanced group is usually more important than making every individual piece identical. For special dimensions or a larger project, we recommend discussing the required sizes and visual character before ordering.
