Rift White Oak

Rift sawn white oak is cut so the growth rings run at a steep angle to the face, giving a tight, straight, linear grain with little of the ray fleck seen on quartersawn boards. It's more stable than plain-sawn oak and looks consistent on every face, which is why it's chosen for modern cabinetry, furniture legs, doors and trim. This listing covers rift and quartersawn white oak, sold by the board foot.
