Bring Nature Indoors with Oak Live Edge Planks

Perfect for anyone looking to add warmth, texture, and timeless charm to their interior, our Oak Live Edge planks are the ideal choice for creating bespoke furniture, shelves, mantels, or rustic bar tops. Sourced from responsibly managed woodlands, each piece is full of character and natural beauty, showcasing the distinctive patterns and features of air-dried oak.

What is Oak Live Edge?

Oak Live Edge refers to timber cut in a way that retains the natural edge of the tree, complete with its organic curves, knots, splits, and even occasional bark. This technique celebrates the uniqueness of each piece of wood, offering a stunning alternative to uniform, factory-finished timber. Whether you’re going for a farmhouse, industrial, or contemporary aesthetic, live edge oak provides a raw, authentic touch that’s unmatched in character.

Natural Features – Embrace the Imperfections

Our oak planks are air dried to maintain their natural integrity and enhance their character. You can expect:

  • Knots and small holes that add individuality
  • Cracks and splits typical of genuine, seasoned oak
  • Live edges (often with bark) that may detach during processing or handling

These natural characteristics are not flaws—they are the heart of what makes live edge oak such a popular material in handmade and artisan furniture design. They lend an organic, unrefined charm that stands out in any space.

Finish It Your Way

Once sanded and finished with oil or wax, Oak Live Edge planks truly come to life. The rich grain patterns deepen, highlighting the golden to caramel tones of the wood. You can apply a finish that suits your style—whether you want to bring out the grain with a natural oil or add a deeper, richer hue with tinted wax.

The photo shown is an example of a finished piece to demonstrate the potential of this material. As every section is unique, no two boards will look the same—ideal for projects that demand individuality and craftsmanship.

Sizing & Selection

Please note: all sizes quoted are minimum sizes and are not exact. Due to the organic nature of the product and its air-dried status, there may be some variation in width and thickness. If precision sizing is crucial to your project, we recommend planing and trimming on-site as required.

We always advise collection for customers who wish to personally select their own piece of timber. This gives you full control over the colour, grain, and specific live edge characteristics that suit your vision.
