Hickory heartwood is reddish-brown with occasional darker streaks and the sapwood is creamy white. The grain pattern is usually straight but occasionally wavy.  It is medium in texture.  Pecan/Hickory grows from the Mississippi River Valley North through Illinois. It Glues, stains and finishes well. 

What does Rustic mean? We sell several of the species in both Clear and Rustic. Rustic is a grade that shows more grain pattern and knots. The boards are quite variable with some looking very close to the Clear boards and some with more knots or pattern. There are also some areas where a patch has to be used a filler if a small circle of wood is missing. We have tried to show several pictures to show the extreme variability of what you may receive. If you need that perfect looking board, then buy the regular species, not rustic. But if you want to use the random, natural wood appearance, then give it a try.
