RV024-WHITE OAK 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.

It is used in the craft of carvers and sculptors. It is also very important as veneer and solid wood and in the construction of musical instruments (e.g. wind, plucked, and string instruments). In the veneer sector, Ebony is only used in the high-quality project, ship, and aircraft interior fittings due to its extravagant beauty and high price. Since each trunk has a different pattern, the products made with them are extremely individual and unique.

The heartwood is yellowish, irregularly veined with reddish veins, striped or spotted, and fades when exposed to light and air, but is nevertheless very decorative. Due to the small diameter, it is often flawed and has cracks in the heart, so it is only suitable for small furniture and inlaid furniture, and rarely for interior design.

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.
