The Ash tree is the third most common tree species in Britain and is sometimes the dominant tree in a wood. It is a deciduous broadleaf tree which produces strong and flexible Ash Wood.
Apart from its elegant finish, Ash wood is versatile and can be used in a variety of applications from tools, to sports equipment to furniture including quality beds. It Is odour free, easy to handle, can take to nails and screws easily and although it is hard, it can bend well if required. It has one of the best weight to strength ratio’s which is why it is often used in Baseball bats.
Ash wood is commonly used to make furniture because of its combination of strength, durability, and attractive appearance. Some of the reasons why ash wood is a popular choice for furniture:
Strength: Ash wood is a hardwood, which means it is denser and stronger than many other types of wood. It is able to withstand the wear and tear of daily use and is less likely to warp or bend over time.
Flexibility: Ash wood is known for its flexibility and ability to bend without breaking. This makes it a good choice for furniture that needs to be shaped or curved, such as chair backs or arms.
Attractive appearance: Ash wood has a beautiful, light-colored grain pattern that is highly visible when the wood is stained or finished. It can be finished to a smooth, polished surface that has a pleasing, natural look.
Availability: Ash wood is widely available and can be sustainably harvested from many regions around the world. This makes it a popular choice for furniture makers who want a high-quality, environmentally friendly material.
Overall, ash wood is a versatile and reliable choice for furniture makers who want to create strong, beautiful pieces that will stand the test of time.
