What is barnwood?

Barnwood, or reclaimed barn wood, often served as the floors and walls of old barns, houses and farmhouses. Time has weathered it beautifully, and now it is ready for a second life. The wood is durable and strong, and in your interior this sustainable material stands out straight away.

Three types of barnwood

At Hout met Historie you can buy barnwood in three different wood species:

Pine: a sought-after softwood with a warm flame grain
Spruce: yellowish brown in colour
Oak: a lively look, with light and dark brown tones and a unique grain

100% reclaimed

Planed, brushed or tongue and groove

When weathered wood from the barns arrives with us, we dry it first, so that it moves as little as possible once it is in your home. We remove the nails and screws and sort the barnwood by colour. You can buy it planed or brushed, and for walls and floors we give the wood a tongue and groove, which makes it easy to fit.

Popular as barnwood cladding

If you're a professional or a handy DIYer, you've almost certainly had this wood in your hands before. Wall cladding is the most popular thing to make from it, but the wood is also perfect for doors, a table top or cabinets. Or lay barnwood as a floor. Almost anything you can think of, you can make from it.

Oak barnwood: wine press boards

The oak variety of barnwood is also known as wine press boards. This wood was mainly used in winemaking: when the grapes were pressed, the juice ran into tubs made of oak boards. That is how they got the name wine press boards. It is quite literally wood with a story.
