The Woods

The wood matters. Each species I work with has its own color, grain pattern, density, and personality. I choose materials for their beauty, durability, and responsible sourcing, not because they are cheap or easy to get. This page covers the hardwoods currently in rotation at PRWMade, what makes each one worth using, and how they behave over time.
