What is Shiplap?

Shiplap is a type of horizontal wood planking with a special edge design that allows the boards to overlap, creating a watertight and strong surface.

Historically used for exterior siding on homes, barns, and even ships, modern shiplap is often used as a decorative interior feature for its rustic, charming aesthetic, popular in farmhouse and coastal designs.
