Beautiful, strong, and rot resistant. White Oak is an economical wood that is prized by woodworkers. If you're looking for a gorgeous wood that works well with both machine and hand tools, you won't go wrong using this wood for interior and exterior projects. What colour is White Oak? The heartwood is a light to medium brown that often has an olive hue. The grain is straight with a course, uneven texture. You’ll commonly find this wood used in cabinetry, furniture, trim, flooring, boat building, barrels, and veneer. It’s by far one of our most popular woods so we offer it in a variety of sizes.
Although these boards have been skipped dress to show colour and grain, they will still require some TLC and additional milling. If you would prefer to have the milling done for you - check out our S4S White Oak Lumber.
