Goodwin Antique River-Recovered® Heart Pine
Original growth longleaf pine in a character grade offers more natural characteristics for added interest
River-Recovered® Heart Pine is the same quality that was last available to your grandparents. These logs were lost by sawyers along the river banks in the 1700s and 1800s. Preserved by the cool river waters in an oxygen-free sanctuary for centuries, George Goodwin and his team recover the logs from Florida rivers and turn them into our signature flooring.
