Elm wood is known for its warm tone, distinctive grain and unique appearance. This species of hardwood is a big favourite with cabinetmakers and wood enthusiasts wanting an original and natural look with just the slightest rustic touch.
Elm is a European hardwood with a lively and distinctive pattern. The heartwood is reddish-brown in colour, while the sapwood tends to be paler, almost yellow. These warm and varied nuances give it its distinctive, authentic look. Elm wood has medium to high hardness, making it both stylish and sturdy. It is an ideal choice for those situations calling for exposed wood.
The warmth of its colour means elm wood pairs beautifully with steel or black accents. It also works really well with our oak beams, as roof boards for example. Solid elm wood can be finished in oil or varnish, depending on the desired look or level of protection.
