Oak Planed Tiburon Beams feature a smooth, refined surface with natural White Oak character. The elegant planed finish creates clean lines and a consistent face. It highlights the grain without added texture.
Tiburon has a clear finish that allows the natural colors of the White Oak to shine through. It features a soft, light-toned palette with sandy beige and pale wheat hues. Subtle grey undertones keep the color balanced and muted. The result is a sun-washed look, with gentle variation that follows the grain. Lighter and deeper tones play across the surface, adding depth while keeping a calm, neutral appearance.
These beams are versatile and a good fit for transitional, modern, and coastal-inspired interiors. They add the warmth of reclaimed wood while presenting a clean look. We make each beam to order and in custom sizes. Box beam construction is available for lighter weight and larger spans.
“Whether people are fully conscious of this or not, they actually derive countenance and sustenance from the ‘atmosphere’ of the things they live in or with. They are rooted in them just as a plant is in the soil in which is planted.” -Frank Lloyd Wright
Planed Beams Detailed Specs
Planed Beams offer a warm and refined look that fits perfectly into both modern and traditional designs. These beams are carefully milled to create a smooth surface, making them an excellent choice for projects that require a sophisticated aesthetic. While they have a contemporary feel, their reclaimed origins show through with a tighter grain, richer colors, and character marks of aged wood. Planed Beams have versatility; they can adapt to a variety of design styles, from minimalist, to contemporary to vintage.
Crafted from authentic reclaimed wood, each beam tells a story. Sourced from older structures like barns, factories, and vintage buildings, we mill the vintage wood to give them the smoothest surface. The box beams combine the beauty of the vintage grain with the benefit of being lighter weight to ship and install. Use box beams as a new architectural design element or to cover existing elements or beams.
Box Joinery: In an ideal situation, we take a single solid beam that is the size of the box beam we are making. We resaw the face and two sides from the solid beam and reassemble these skins with a miter joint. If we cannot make the size needed from a single solid beam, we will use pieces from multiple beams and will miter them together using our proprietary techniques that mean the finished beam will read as a solid beam.

Source: Reclaimed beams taken from barns and other old structures.
