Curly Maple Thin

Curly Maple Thin

This figured wood offers a distinct look for furniture and guitars!

Curly maples have the colouring seen on the the individual species but then feature a curled grain pattern that is found perpendicular to the grain direction. The curls can be quite tight together or spaced further apart and are sometimes also called Fiddleback Maple or Tiger Maple.

Curly Maple works well, though a sharp hand plane will reduce the amount of tearout that occurs. It takes finishes and stains well and poses no difficulty in gluing.

This wood gets used in many different ways. From showcased as a main wood on instruments to accents on furniture. You can also find it used on turnings or other decorative objects. Curly Maple can really add a bit of punch to a project but be careful to over do it. A small cabinet with curly drawers can look elegant while an entire piece made from this figured would can be visually overwhelming.

In order to offer more protective packing for shipping - our lengths are often 1/4" less than sizes listed. Need a wider width or longer length? Please email us for a quote. Custom millwork charges will apply.

Useless

Ordered curly maple and recieved a wormy piece and a warped piece of regular maple with virtually no figuring. Can’t use it for its intended purpose now.
