With the New England Collection, JP Wood Accents invites you to bring a piece of history into your home. Each plank is more than just wood; it’s a story waiting to be told, a legacy of craftsmanship carried forward with pride. This is why we do what we do: to keep the soul of American craftsmanship alive, one board at a time.
Picture a time when the world moved a little slower, and craftsmen measured their days by the rise and fall of the sun. The New England Collection captures this bygone era, bringing the beauty and authenticity of early American craftsmanship into modern homes. With each piece, you can almost hear the rhythmic hum of the circular saw and the sharp scrape of the planer, wielded by artisans who took pride in their work.
For JP Wood Accents, it all began with a love for the stories hidden in the grain of old wood, where each mark and imperfection speaks of a time when things were built to last. In the 18th and 19th centuries, woodworkers relied on rudimentary tools. Circular saw marks ran like whispers along the planks, and boards were skip planed, leaving a textured surface that was as raw and honest as the people who worked with it. These imperfections weren’t flaws; they were the signature of authenticity, a testament to the skilled hands that crafted each piece with care and dedication.
Today, JP Wood Accents honors this tradition by replicating these saw marks and textures in their New England Collection. Each board tells a story. The circular saw marks reflect the transition of woodworking from purely manual methods to the early days of industrialization. Skip planing, a technique where the planer blade just skims the surface, leaves behind the rustic character of the wood, celebrating the natural beauty of the material.
The New England Collection isn’t just about creating flooring, wall planks or beams. It’s about capturing a moment in time, about the feeling of stepping into a room and being transported back to a place where each creak of the floor echoed with history. JP Wood Accents believes that by embracing the techniques of the past, we bring authenticity and warmth to the present. It’s not just wood; it’s a connection to a simpler time, a reminder of the value of hard work, and a celebration of the skilled craftsmanship that built a nation.
We have three main types of markings on our wood products: circle sawn, chatter marks and non-distressed. You can choose the marking that you like best for your application.
Circle Sawn
Contains saw marks to mimic the appearance and texture of classic barnwood.
Chatter Marks
Includes imperfections that make the wood look more rustic and authentic.
We use engineered hardwood for our wide plank flooring. Why? Engineering, which involves a multi-layer base to the floor plank, creates a much more dependable substructure that won’t bend, twist, warp or shrink with time. While the top 1/4″ of the plank is true hardwood, this substructure is designed for unrivaled longevity and durability.
Our flooring is designed, milled and finished in the United States using sustainably sourced lumber from central Pennsylvania and the northeastern U.S., supporting local businesses and craftsmanship.
We ship our flooring products nationwide. You can also come pick them up in Newport, PA.
Floors made in the USA help support local economies and supply chains, often feature higher quality control standards, and can offer easier access to support, sampling and customization than many imported products.
