Elm, known scientifically as Ulmus procera, is sourced from the UK. The heartwood is a dull brown colour, clearly defined from the lighter-coloured sapwood.
Elm’s irregular growth rings and cross-grained character give it an attractive appearance. It is suitable for various woodworking projects despite being prone to insect attack.
Elm can be fairly difficult to work with, tending to pick up during planning and moulding. However, it can be glued, stained, polished, and waxed effectively.
Non-durable and susceptible to insect attack, making it suitable for interior use where it can be protected.
