RV150-GRAY OAK GREEN

Great demand for closely striped blocks with a center diameter of 1 m and above.

Highly sought-after and considered high-quality furniture wood for interior design and high-end furniture construction. Due to its high strength and elasticity, it is also suitable for chair and seating furniture production. Particularly used for gun stocks and aircraft propellers. Traditional wood for piano and grand piano construction.

Tiny knots in the grain resemble small bird’s eyes. The figure is reportedly caused by unfavorable growing conditions for the tree. The tree attempts to start numerous new buds to get more sunlight, but with poor growing conditions the new shoots are aborted, and afterward, some tiny knots remain.

Has a very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake. The wood itself is a reddish brown with grey or light brown rays, which result in a lace pattern when quartersawn. Like other woods that exhibit the strongest figure in quartersawn pieces, (such as Sycamore), Lacewood has the most pronounced figure and displays the largest flecks when perfectly quartersawn; this is due to the wood’s wide medullary rays, whose layout can be seen the clearest when looking at the end grain.
