Bark House Moldings
Bark House Moldings can be used to bring nature into any
home or commercial environment. The system HC® has
developed makes it easy.
Moldings with coped joinery made exclusively by Highland Craftsmen® reflect attention to detail and complete the Bark House style. Even when used alone, without other Bark House Elements, they connect people to nature and invite calm. They can be used to case window and door openings, in place of crown mold, chair rail, to accent cabinetry or create art and furniture.
Moldings are available in Full Round, Three Quarter Round for Outside Corners, Half Round for Casings or Flat Applications, Quarter Round for Inside Corners and U-Channel to finish dimensional lumber stock edges. This product is kiln dried and heat sterilized for interior applications.
Lengths are from 4’ to 12’ in 2’ increments. Diameters are from 2” to 8”. Organic moldings will have slight variations in diameters due to natural taper.
History
Natural moldings have long been a part of rustic architecture. The home pictured is in Washington and was built in the early 1900’s incorporating these natural treasures, using numerous craftsmen and long hours to hand scribe a perfect fit. HC has partially mechanized this process to save the homeowner time and money. All finish work is hand scribed.
