An Open Wood is a flue pipe of large scale and rectangular wooden construction, usually found on the pedal organs of mid 19th to mid 20th century instruments.
Where pedals had any stops of their own, it would be large scale and unison pitch to emphasise the bass.
So when the German model was adopted in the 19th century, with its CC compass manuals and larger pedal, it was a natural step to complete this large scale "Pedal Pipes" stop to 16', and it continued to provide a massive bass to underpin the ensemble.
