Fagus sylvatica“Steaming turns it a warm reddish-brown and brings out the finest bending timber we stock; forgiving even where knots and irregular grain would stop others.”
Heartwood is very pale pink-brown; continental practice steams the timber to a reddish-brown tone, with some logs showing a dark-red kern or veining. Straight grain and a fine, even texture.
Cabinetmaking, high-class joinery, solid and laminated furniture, desks and benches, chairmaking, turnery, musical instruments, domestic flooring, heavy construction and marine piling. Sliced for decorative flecked veneers.
