The Beauty of Wood

 

Hardwoods provide us with cork form the Cork Oak and veneer used in the restoration of this 1948 Chrysler Town and Country convertible

Do You Know Where Cork Comes From?

Cork is the bark of the Cork Oak tree (Quercus suber), a natural product which is harvested without cutting down the tree.  Cork Oak is a renewable and sustainable resource which meets today's demands for care and conservations of our forest. At cork oak plantations, the first cork bark is taken when the trees are approximately 25 years old.  The tree is completely unharmed and regrows it cork surface, which can be reharvested every 9 years
