Oak boules
Consistent oak flitches from the same tree
The oak boules are mainly sawed from butt log, in planks of single thickness, to be later reassembled.
All the planks come from the same tree, which guarantees consistency of colour and aspect.
We also offer ash boules and beech boules or other hardwoods species.
Our sawmill keeps every thicknesses and qualities of air-dried & kiln-dried wood in stock, according to the European Grading Standard EN 975-1.
