The European smoke tree (Cotinus coggygria) is native to Central and Southern Europe, India, Pakistan, Nepal, and China. It grows mostly as a broad and bushy shrub to heights of just 10 to 15 feet. It does not have a very large trunk, usually no more than 4-6 inches across. The wood contains ingredients that have been used as dyes since ancient times.
The wood is hard, somewhat heavy, and tough. It is one of the exotic woods native to Europe and has an exceptional yellow-greenish color that is very stable.
Dimensions: approx. 125 x 40 x 30 mm

Finely grained wood may contain imperfections such as open knots, bark inclusions, or cracks that are typical of the species. These flaws come from the way the tree has grown and are completely natural. They can usually be filled with low-viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue) and wood dust.
