Green oak? Timeless charm of oak wood.

That oak is durable and strong is proven by many historical buildings throughout Europe. The charm and grandeur of oak structures weathered by the test of time cannot be matched by any other material. Oak is slow-growing and therefore more durable than other types of wood from our regions. The age-old traditional English principle of “oak framing” uses young sawn “green” oak in self-supporting structures with numerous necessary joining methods, mortise and tenon joints by means of wooden dowels and bent pegs, which through the natural drying process of the young oak only make these joints stronger. This craft requires knowledge and experience. It is obvious that after production the assembly must be carried out in the short term because of the drying process.
