Dining Room Beams

14 years ago

Love the barrel ceiling and the Beams. We are curretly renovating our family room and these beams would be perfect with our stone and stucco.

Please could you share with me the type of wood used for the beams, the stain(s) used and the distress method. I would be most grateful.

Thanks!

It's possible these beams were distressed specifically for this project, but I would venture to guess that these are reclaimed timbers...the adz marks. worm holes and splitting are most likely authentic and add to the character of the wood.
