The Krantz Story

With nearly 100 years of history in the

lumber business , Krantz Select Woods has

a rich history of providing fine lumber to

proud home owners and better home

builders throughout the US.

The Krantz story began in the early 1920s,

when family patriarch Onezime “Bess”

Krantz began selling Cypress from his land

along Louisiana’s Atchafalaya River. He

passed on his love for this beautiful, rich

wood to son James, who began milling and

selling Cypress in 1970. It was James’ son,

Jimmy who took the family business online

with the launch of Jimmy’s Cypress and

Krantz Recovered Woods.

Whether you’re seeking high grade Cypress

lumber offered by Jimmy’s Cypress, or the

unique beauty and history of Krantz

Recovered Woods, you can turn to Krantz

for a large selection of high quality woods,

years of industry expertise, and second-to-none

service. At Krantz Select Woods, passion for

beautiful wood is not just business, it’s truly a

family tradition.

lost resource. Every recovered timber effectively saves a living tree from being cut down.

Why Cypress?

Cypress has long been valued for its strength, versatility,

and natural beauty. Popular for centuries, builders turn

to Cypress time and time again for finer home projects.

With a naturally lustrous honey hue and the ability to

resist pests, elements, and decay, it's an ideal choice for

almost any project. Cypress has always been used for

exteriors, but its fine grain and rich tones make it a

beautiful choice for interior projects as well.

Wood the way it used to be.

Krantz Recovered Woods offers reclaimed virgin Cypress

and Longleaf Pine of exceptional quality. These woods

are salvaged from old buildings being deconstructed and

underwater logs that were lost while being floated to a

sawmill many years ago. They are then hand selected and

carefully milled to live again in fine homes and design

projects of today. Krantz Recovered Woods chooses

only the finest recovered woods and lovingly restores

them to bring a distinctive, antique quality look to your next

project. With a large selection of products easily

accessed online, Krantz Recovered Woods puts these

treasures of yesterday at your fingertips.

The Reclaimed Woods Difference

All of our reclaimed Cypress and Longleaf Pine are

classified as virgin growth lumber and originate from

America’s first forests. The dense growing conditions of

these ancient forests provided limited nutrients and

sunlight, resulting in an incredibly beautiful and long

lasting wood. Coveted by woodworkers, builders and

craftsman alike, these woods display a fineness of grain,

pattern and density instantly recognizable as “antique

quality”. Wood of this beauty and strength is available

today only through recovery and restoration efforts, and

Krantz Recovered Woods is passionately committed to

making them available to you.
