European Ash
Information
Appearance
Typically straight-grained with a brownish-white colour when dried. Dark brown streaks can sometimes be found in the heartwood.
Introduction
European ash is typically straight grained, and this, combined with its toughness and flexibility, makes it one of the world's most valuable timbers for such uses as sports goods and striking tool handles. It is rather coarse textured, and varies somewhat in weight according to the growth conditions, from 528 kg/m³ to 816 kg/m³ when dried, but averaging 710 kg/m³.
