RV086-WALNUT SMALL CROWN

One of the most common furniture woods in the USA. In recent years, hard maple has also gained a foothold in Europe as a furniture wood, especially as a "replacement wood" for pear, alder or maple in unsteamed white or muted pink tones. Due to its abrasion resistance, it is also used as a hard-wearing parquet wood in gymnasiums, etc. Turned as spools, shuttles, or billiard cues.

Sycamore works easily with both hand and machine tools, though the interlocked grain can be troublesome in surfacing and machining operations at times. Sycamore turns, glues, and finishes well. Responds poorly to steam bending.

Veneer wood, sliced ​​wood for face and interior veneers, and rotary cut wood for plywood panels. Used more as interior veneer in the furniture industry.

Most common species of tree in the world. Its subspecies are found from the Arctic Circle to the mountain regions in the tropics. The most used species for the production of veneer in central Europe are the common pine and in southern Europe the maritime pine.
