SUNKEN TREASURE – LAKE SUPERIOR RECLAIMED PINE COFFEE TABLE By Tom Bodin
This is no ordinary coffee table, but a finely crafted piece of furniture made out of incredibly rare wood. The table was made from a log of white pine that has been sitting at the bottom of Lake Superior since the late 1880s. The tree is estimated to have been more than 125 years old at the time it was logged. The value of these Lake Superior sunken logs is staggering, making this table not only an amazing conversation piece, but of great value. Because these logs have existed for more than 100 years at large depths and in very cold water, they have been preserved almost to perfection. Not only that, but the wood takes on beautiful streaks of color from the sediment that has worked into the soft pine. RMEF Volunteer Tom Bodin has spent months working on preparation and milling the wood and turning it into a wonderful heirloom.
