The European beech (Fagus syvatica) is one of the most common deciduous trees in Germany and Central Europe. Its wood has a slightly reddish color and is used extensively in industry, especially in mass manufacturing of furniture. The tree can reach heights of about 115 feet and live to an age of about 300 years, occasionally even older.
The wood is hard, heavy, and can be worked quite well. Whether steamed or not, the wood is quite uniform with little variation. Tumbled beech wood, on the other hand, has fine black veins and a play on colors that make it quite eye-catching.
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.
