Heart Pine is prized for its rich, golden-red hue, dense grain, and exceptional durability. Sourced from the heartwood of longleaf pine trees, it offers a timeless look that blends warmth and strength—making it ideal for flooring, paneling, beams, and custom millwork. Known for its high resin content and tight growth rings, Heart Pine holds up beautifully in both historic restorations and new architectural builds.

Heart Pine Types

New Heart Pine

New Heart Pine is harvested from recently felled Southern Yellow Pine trees that are mature enough to develop dense heartwood. It offers a warm, amber hue with prominent grain patterns and occasional knots, creating a rustic yet refined aesthetic. This wood is ideal for flooring, millwork, and furniture when you want the look of heart pine with consistent availability.

Antique Heart Pine

Antique Heart Pine is reclaimed from centuries-old structures such as barns, factories, or warehouses. Valued for its tight growth rings, rich patina, and superior hardness, it reflects the character of old-growth timber no longer available in today’s forests. With nail holes, saw marks, and color variations, this wood brings unmatched history and charm to custom interiors.

Caribbean Heart Pine

Caribbean Heart Pine is sourced from plantation-grown pine in Central America, offering a sustainable alternative to reclaimed or domestic heart pine. It boasts vibrant color tones, ranging from golden honey to reddish brown, and features a straight, clear grain. Its strength and visual warmth make it well-suited for high-end flooring, cabinetry, and exposed beams.
