Shou Sugi Ban

Burning Wood Beautifully

Delta has refined its process of “modern-day shou sugi ban”, creating products for modern designs that reference the traditional Japanese technique of charring wood cladding.

Delta Millworks began burning wood in 2007, and we were instantly enthralled by the beautiful textures and grain patterns achieved by taking torches to timbers and boards.

Shortly after beginning the craft, we realized we were reviving the Japanese tradition of “shou-sugi-ban.”
