Dinesen

HeartOak

Dinesen is presenting a unique solution that reveals the inner life of the oak tree. The unusually wide and long HeartOak planks have an honest expression and let nature unfold in all its beauty. 

With HeartOak, Dinesen makes a virtue of the heritage and inner secrets of the oak tree. The more than 118-year-old family business processes the tree in a gentle way and preserves the natural cracks, resulting from the impact of nature through hundreds of years. As a particularly beautiful detail, the cracks are locked by butterfly joints of oak. The planks are produced in extraordinary dimensions with widths up to 50 centimetres and lengths up to 5 metres and are a very authentic piece of nature.

A very special story
The old oak trees tell a very special story. The hard winters, dry summers, storm and wind they have lived through leave traces. Some of which can be seen in the annual rings and the size of the knots, while others appear only when the tree is sawn-up. During the cutting and drying process, the wood has to release the inner tensions from a long life in the woods, leaving characteristic cracks in the tree.
