oaken
Made from acorns' source
Oaken means made of oak wood: the oaken beams of the old barn, an oaken door.
The word is literary and old-fashioned—modern English usually prefers "oak" as an adjective: oak table, oak cabinet.
Oaken survives mainly in historical fiction and poetry, where it evokes medieval or rustic settings.
