Most of the wood that is used to build Old Hickory furniture and to produce its veneers has always come from the Tennessee Valley, where it grows in abundance. More recently, though, reclaimed wood furniture has become a very popular medium, both because it is considered "green," as no trees are felled to obtain the wood, and because of the beauty of the rustic, old, weathered timber. Many of the items we now sell are produced from these weathered timbers and beams reclaimed from old barns and structures throughout the midwest.
