A love haiku to ELM:
Gazes graze on winding grain
The wind turns slightly
Gold swings like feathers towards you
Considering it for your project? Elm is a dynamic neutral, neither dark nor light, and definitely not too formal. It has a well-pronounced grain pattern, a natural iridescence, and, often, a delightfully irregular shape. The natural hardness checks out between African Mahogany and Cherry.
BFA projects use exclusively sustainably salvaged Elm, kiln-dried for CO. Get in touch to see what the slab selection process looks like for yourself!
