| This is the premier wood of the Adirondack style. The new growth twigs (1/2" - 1" diameter) are colored red to dark brown. As the tree grows to larger diameters (1" - 4") the bark begins to change to an iridescent gold. This variety is used for both legs and trim. |
| A New York hardwood with integrity. It makes strong joints and the bark never fails (peels off). Colors and textures vary based on growth environment. |
| White Ash |
| Yellow Birch |
| Willow |
| Willow cross pollinates so the varieties are endless. Although most are shades of brown, I have found and propagated some promising colors which will be available in another couple of years. Willow is primarily used for trim and decoration. |
| Birch Bark |
| Grey Birch ranges in color from smooth white to textured grey. Using the reverse side expands the color range from gold to red and dappled brown. |
| face side: |
| This bark varies a great deal from thin and smooth to thick and rough. We choose bark with some character. For durability and ease of care, we avoid material that is curling up or peeling. |
| reverse side: |
| A variety of blotchy patterns occur with colors like tan, rust, and black. Once in awhile the bark is peeled from the tree without cambium residue. This clean bark, or one that is cleaned by scrubbing, dries at a golden color. |
