Cedar – Western Red

Boasting rich hues — ranging from mellow ambers, to reddish cinnamons and sienna browns — Western Red Cedar is one of the most unique, beautiful softwoods in the world. Its grains are straight, and its texture is uniform and fine-grained, with a satin-like luster. It’s durability makes it ideally suited for a variety of outdoor applications. It’s easy to work, and glues and finishes well.
Despite its lightweight and modest density, the wood has tremendous dimensional stability.
Western Red Cedar is not listed in the CITES Appendices and is reported by the IUCN as being a species of least concern.

This is a wonderfully versatile softwood and is widely used for everything from home construction to clear quarter-sawn pieces for classical guitar soundboards.
