This product is made to order and has a 4-6 week lead time before shipping. I send photos for your approval before I ship it out.
The one in the picture is raw blackened steel with clear coat.

This art piece is a combination of reclaimed barnwood and a world map that is cut from 1/16" thick raw steel.
The frame is made of Poplar hardwood stained in a Black Ebony finish. The barnwood strips measure ½” wide and vary in depth to give the art piece some depth. All the various brown and grey colored strips of wood are completely natural in color; there is no stain or paint that has been applied to the inner pieces. I then applied two coats of low VOC water based sealer in a matte finish to preserve the art piece.

First, choose a size under the tab labelled "Dimensions" and then choose the “Steel finish” you would like. For this listing I offer raw steel with clear matte finish which looks blueish black in color. The second option painted in a black matte finish.

Each art piece is hand signed and dated in the back and I also make a custom made laser engraved wood name tag on the side of the piece.

I also include a heavy duty mounting bracket.

All my art pieces are made using very old wood from barns and homes taken down in my area.

Hi My name is Craig Forget and I am a reclaimed wood artist

I feel that I am part of the large art movement that has been growing in the Detroit and Windsor area, it is great to be part of this movement. It is also great to be able to express myself through art. I am in it for the long haul, I believe in producing the most unique art pieces with the most unique wood that I can find. I always feel that it is the old, reclaimed wood that makes my pieces unique.


I have been influenced by woodworking from a very young age and recently I have found my true passion for building unique artwork and furniture out of reclaimed barn wood. What I love about the materials that I work with is that you never know what types of wood you are going to find in the local barns that range from 80 to 200 years of age. You could say I am like a kid in a candy store.


What makes my artwork and furniture so unique is that I am always on the hunt for unique types of wood that will create an impressive piece. I especially enjoy working with wood that is bursting with character. There are no faux finishes in the world that can duplicate the colors and textures that Mother Nature creates, 95% to 100% of the colors you see on my art pieces have not been stained what you see is the natural color of the wood. When wood is aged for 80 to 100 years, it turns naturally dark in color.
The darker brown natural woods were those aged within a barn, while grey boards have been weathered outside.
When you are buying one of my pieces, you are also buying a piece of Pioneer history, when power tools were almost non-existent.
