Classically beautiful European Ash | We carry this classic species in many forms of lumber, from square edge in several thicknesses to boules and live edge slabs. Speaking of boule lumber, we delve into why this form of lumber is superior for projects that call for color and grain matching.

Boule lumber highlight | Have you used boule lumber before? This special lumber is an entire sawn log with its boards in sequential order. Each board of a boule naturally shares characteristics with the others, making this type of lumber superior for color and grain matching. We have dozens of species in boule form, from Afrormosia to Ziricote.
