Yewtree

Origin:

Europe, South Asia, North Africa and North America

Color:

Orange-brown to purple-brown, darkening to golden brown

Characteristics:

Typical straight, brown-red veins of various shades. Sometimes with a fine as well as with a coarse-wavy pattern.

Application:

The yew is one of the oldest kinds of lumber. Today it has scarcity value and is therefore preferred for luxury articles and veneer, as well as for high-quality turning and carving work.

Did you know ...

... that managed forests, thanks to their high proportion of young, strong, growing trees, enable CO2 to be extracted?

... that an old, unmanaged forest produces as much CO2 through processes of decomposition and decay as it stores, and that therefore an unmanaged forest contributes nothing to reducing global CO2?
