Lath is a thin, narrow strip of wood used to hold plaster on ceilings and walls. In this video, Lee McColgan, local preservation carpenter, explains how lath was riven, or split, for use. | Plymouth Antiquarian Society

New Lath Art now available in collaboration with @james.allen.studio. This is the wood that was used for plastering prior to Drywall being invented. These boards were pulled from houses all over Nashville. We even have the addresses of where the wood came from!!! If you are interested in a piece from James Allen DM me and we’ll get you more info. Support local artists, reclaiming local wood. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 #lath #reclaimedwood #woodworking #carpentry #nashvillebuilder #nashvilleinteriors #nashvill
