Thompson Mahogany has acquired a new supplier for European Beech, and we just received our first shipment. This order of FSC® European Beech is special because in is sorted for quartersawn, and for 12 feet and longer. Those are both difficult to get in this species so please contact us today if you are interested in ordering some.
The Lumber we have is lightly steamed and available from our Philadelphia location.We have 4/4, 6/4, and 8/4 thickness material available. We also have flatsawn in addition to the quartersawn mentioned above. You can find out more about the species on our European Beech product page. If you have any questions feel free to contact us or comment below.
Its hardness, wear resistance, strength, and excellent bending capabilities—coupled with its low price—make this hardwood a mainstay for woodworkers. Some common uses for European Beech include flooring, boatbuilding, furniture, cabinetry, musical instruments, plywood, veneers and turned objects. Beech is actually prized for its stability. This, in addition to its hardness, is why wooden moulding planes were made exclusively from Beech.
