Beech wood: characteristics

Beech wood is a strong, fine-grained wood. The wood is not as absorbent as oak wood, and since we use it in smaller assembly parts or frames rather than for whole table tops for example, it is significantly less likely to crack or warp.

Beech in a nutshell

  • Durable hardwood: Beech is strong and can last for many years.

  • Grain and colour: Beech wood has a fine, tight grain and a light, reddish-brown hue. The smooth texture makes it ideal for stained finishes.

  • Shapeable: The wood is easy to work with and allows for strong joints and bonds, ensuring a sturdy frame construction.
