Spruce barnwood from the Alps

Spruce barnwood makes the most beautiful wall cladding, which is exactly what it was originally used for: in those typical wooden barns and farmhouses in Europe's mountains, among other places. You've probably spotted them on holiday along winding mountain roads, often half in ruins. But behind that faded glory there is often still wonderful wood.

You'll recognise spruce by its distinctive look

This wood is strong, and precisely because of the life it has already lived, it has a weathered, lived-in character. The marks of time are etched into the boards. Spruce barnwood has wonderful flame grain and comes in red and grey.

The difference between spruce and oak barnwood

Spruce and oak boards share a history as barnwood. The biggest differences:

  • Spruce is a softer wood
  • Red and grey are its signature colours
  • In spruce you'll see flames in the grain
  • And oak barnwood has slightly fewer knots
