What Is Incense Cedar?
Incense Cedar is a highly durable wood with significant
insulative value. It has a subtle, pleasant aroma.
Our product is available in either solid or "pecky"
form. Pecky Cedar is a form of Incense Cedar that
has an unusual, natural textured surface that
is caused by a fungus during the tree's growth.
This fungus imparts a decorative effect that is
strikingly unique. Unlike other fungi, Pecky Cedar
ceases to decay the wood after the tree is harvested
and processed, leaving the beautiful appearance
without compromising the strength, durability
and longevity of the wood.
Unique Incense Cedar Adds Warmth
The qualities of Incense Cedar can be imparted
to many parts of the home. The wood can be machined
to a smooth silken finish, sandblasted to accentuate
the grain, or distressed for an antique look.
It is a warm light brown when left unfinished,
sealing brings out the red tones of the wood,
and when placed on the exterior, it becomes a
soft driftwood gray. |
