Tobacco Lath Cladding - Reclaimed
Tobacco Lath Cladding - Reclaimed
Our tobacco lath is comprised of thin, narrow sticks of straight-grained wood which was used by farmers to dry tobacco leaves. A metal tip was attached to the end of the wood where several leaves were speared and hung in the rafters of the barn to dry. Made from boards salvaged from across southwestern Wisconsin, this reclaimed material creates a unique, natural surface patina which has developed over decades of use.
Shown here unfinished, please contact your sales representative for prefinished options.

Cladding Considerations
CHARACTER/GRADE Fillable characteristics include stable or small open knots, nail and bolt holes, insect marks and pin holes, and non-structural surface checks. Natural variations in grain and color, wear patterns, textures, and, in some instances, saw marks are expected. Pronounced wear patterns, scarring, and nail holes, some slight overwood can be expected. INSTALLATION Please allow an extra 10-15% material waste for on-site installation.
