We Love What We Do!

We are a small mom-and-pop shop that works hands-on to craft all of these tables, mantels, and countertops. We feel so very fortunate to reclaim old wood from the fading American landscape and to create wonderful pieces that can last generations. It is indeed a blessing. Let us create something for you.

Mantel Beams

These beam mantels are the real deal. Many of them have ax marks from American settlers in the 1800s or circle sawmarks from the early 1900s. We don’t artificially distress our mantels; they’re all original. We sand and finish each beam to make it look its best.

Mantel Shelves

Most beams from old barns are square, like 8x8s or 9x9s. Sometimes, we find rectangular beams, like 6x9s. These are usually log cabin timbers with tree-like fronts and hand-hewn tops and bottoms. We also cut large 10×10 hand-hewn beams down to 5x10s.

Mantels with Metal

We can add hand-hammered metal straps and ironwork to reclaimed beams. Whether you want simple metal straps, a Christmas stocking rod, corbels, or something more elaborate, our blacksmith is up for the challenge. Coal-forged, hand-hammered – this is the real deal.

Trestle Tables

The trestle table is a classic design that has been around for centuries. It has two legs and a horizontal stretcher between them. This simple design is both sturdy and stylish. We love trestle tables for two main reasons. First, they provide plenty of legroom for everyone at the table. Second, they’re built to last. 

Farm Tables

The term “farm tables” can mean different things to different people. Some people only mean classic tables with turned legs and thin tops, while others include trestle tables as well. We’re going to call any legged table a farm table.
That’s what this collection is all about!

Industrial Tables

These industrial machine base tables are so cool! I’ve been dreaming of designing tables from old industrial parts for probably 35 years. It was amazing to see the first one come together. Just like with our wood tops, we want the iron to have a natural and authentic look.

Wood Countertops

Wood countertops are back in style, and for good reason! Our reclaimed wood countertops are even better than modern solid wood countertops, with flowing edges, unique colors, and interesting textures.

Wood Flooring

Hardwood wide planks and tongue-and-groove reclaimed wood flooring add a warm and authentic touch to any home. This is not your modern plasic floor. That’s for sure.

Log Cabins and Barns

We come across old log cabins and barns often in our work. When possible, we prefer to see them preserved for reuse as cabins and homes. But if they’re too damaged or cut up, we salvage the wood for furniture and other projects.

We craft fine fireplace mantels, farm tables, and countertops from reclaimed wood. Our work often incorporates hand-hammered, forged metalwork.

What a beautiful outdoor mantel setting! Gotta love the blue sky and greenery along with our hand-hewn white oak mantel. It has a cut top to make it rectangular. I can imagine many relaxing days with a cool breeze out there.

We couldn’t be happier with our mantel from Antique Woodworks. We came in with specs determined by leftover mounting hardware, and Kevin accommodated all our specific needs and made our custom order process easy to navigate. He was very communicative over email, ensuring that we were on the same page with follow up questions and images. He even gave us multiple options for the grain of the various boards, taking time to explain why he thought different combinations worked well visually. We appreciated his friendly updates with process photos throughout. We also loved that we could see other projects online–we like the naming convention! It seems like Kevin genuinely enjoys his work and his craft. We received our well-packaged mantel and it fit like a glove on our existing mounting hardware. The customer service and prices at Antique Woodworks are fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of the piece. Thank you, Kevin and Mari! Would definitely return here for future custom pieces.

Antique Woodworks was wonderful to work with! Despite living many states away, it felt like we had an in-person custom experience working with Kevin. His responsiveness, consideration of our needs, suggestions, and wide range of solutions was wonderful. Our mantel is has surpassed expectations and completed our room. Thank you!

I bought a mantel from Antique Woodworks about two years ago. I should have posted this sooner, but we’re thrilled with the purchase we made. The owners cut it and did some fine tuning right on the spot, which saved me time for installation. Further, my wife didn’t want a mantel with lacquer and poly off-gassing in our master bedroom so the piece is finished with a wax product which is marvelous. Finally, we appreciated the owners giving us the background of the wood species and where this beam was likely harvested from. While a little out of the way from the Twin Cities, it was a worthwhile experience and I would recommend these folks highly.

Kevin created 2 beautiful mantels for our home! He is meticulous about the details and a true craftsman. His partnership with Wyatt allowed us to add iron details that made them each unique! Thank you all for adding such beauty to our home. We love them!

Kevin is a delight to work with. I have traveled most of my life for assessing and researching the architectural styles of different European countries. I was trying to design a mantel for my 1932 historical house and I never thought I could achieve that task till I met Kevin. Together we designed a mantle that came out just exquisite. Kevin’s work is nothing less than flawless and his attention to details is unmatched. Thanks you again Kevin.

Fantastic ‘hand hewn’ mantel from the mid 1800’s! Easy company to work with and even when I had a small ‘boo boo’ that I caused during the installation, they sent me the repair parts for a quick and easy fix.

Found Antique Woodworks online – and what a lucky find! Owners Kevin and Mari are the best to work with! I told them what I was looking for and they selected the perfect hand hewn barn timber beam for my fireplace project. Pricing, available inventory, great customer service – they have it all in spades. Never hesitate to work with Antique Woodworks! Looking forward to doing some more work with them in the near future…

The knowledge, selection and service provided by Antique Woodworks was simply the best. We were looking for a mantel and Kevin offered a wonderful selection, was willing to finish out a few for us to choose and offered some great ideas. Price was more than fair too. You cannot find a better business for reclaimed wood options, whether it’s a fireplace mantel or other furniture needs.

Kevin was most helpful in identifying a rustic mantel that would fit our needs and style. His communication was great and I could not have been more pleased with the level of service. The finished product was beautiful and has really added some unique character to our family room. I would strongly recommend Kevin and his company Antique Woodworks.

I can’t say enough about this company, to work with a person via email to custom order something so central as a mantle is a daunting task. Kevin does an excellent job of listening to your wants and matching it to the product he has in stock. Once the mantle is picked he makes very sure that you are in the know about what you’re getting and the process that the piece is going through IE finish or steel work. I would absolutely do it all over again.

What an exceptional experience purchasing a reclaimed beam from Antique Woodworks! We were able to review pictures of the raw beam and select the piece. It was then cut to our specifications and finished and final pictures were emailed. We were not obligated to purchase the mantle unless we liked the finish product. It was carefully packaged and shipped to us and was received within a week. So pleased with how it came out and the customer service was excellent. Highly recommend!

I worked with Kevin at Antique Woodworks to find the perfect mantel.He not only provided suggestions and photos, but took my photo of my fireplace and showed me what different mantels and lengths would look like. I have priced mantels from across the country and talked to multiple suppliers. Kevin was by far the best with listening and suggesting solutions while suppling a beautiful piece at a fair price. I couldn’t be happier. I strongly suggest you contact Kevin at Antique Woodworks.
