The term references lumber, typically hardwood, characterized by one or more edges that retain the natural contour of the tree from which it was harvested. This material is available from a major home improvement retailer. Often, these pieces exhibit unique grain patterns and imperfections, differentiating them from milled lumber with uniform dimensions.
This type of wood offers aesthetic versatility, suitable for crafting distinctive furniture, shelving, and decorative accents. Its organic form lends a rustic or natural element to interior design. The availability of this lumber at a large retailer provides consumers with greater access to unique woodworking materials, fostering creativity in both professional and amateur woodworking projects.
