Select this button to see prices


Silky Oak has an open texture compared to other timbers. It can reach heights of 40 metres and a width of 2 metres.

Silky Oak is pinkish or reddish brown, turning browner with age. There is sometimes a golden sheen to the wood, but the most prominent feature is the large rays which produce a well marked silver - grain figure. The wood is straight grained and the texture coarse, but even.

Our Silky Oak comes from Brazil and it has warmer pale pink tones and the natural fish scale pattern. A nice timber to work with, it is best used with simple designs so the grain pattern can stand out.

Uses: Furniture, cabinets and decorative items, paneling, shop fitting and veneer

Grade: Select
