Yew Wood<\/strong> -the Yew tree is native to Europe, Asia and North Africa. It has a golden orange-brown heartwood which matures into a yellow-brown colour which is streaked with dark purple-mauve and brown patches, with veins and tiny clusters and knots of in-grown bark. <\/p>\n

It has a white to cream sapwood which provides an attractive contrast to the heartwood. The grain is usually straight but can sometimes be curly and irregular. <\/p>\n

Yew was used for centuries to make traditional English Longbows as well as fences, gates, posts, doors, tables and rustic furniture. It has also been used for veneering, but this needs careful preparation as Yew wood is very brittle. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
