European Beech with a sawn (flat-cut) figure showing subtle cathedral patterns. Color is a pale cream to light pinkish-brown, often with a very uniform appearance. Steaming during processing deepens the color to a warmer reddish tone. One of the most widely used European hardwoods.

Grain & Texture: Straight to slightly wavy grain with a fine, even texture. Flat-cutting reveals a subtle cathedral figure. Very uniform and consistent — Beech is known for its lack of dramatic figure, which makes it ideal for clean, modern applications.
Workability: Excellent workability. Machines, turns, glues, and finishes very well. Takes stain evenly due to its uniform density. Steam-bending properties are outstanding. One of the easiest European hardwoods to work.
Uses: Modern furniture, cabinetry, architectural millwork, flooring, musical instruments, tool handles. The clean, uniform appearance makes it a staple in Scandinavian and contemporary European design.
