13 Japanese Birch A broad leaf tree of the Birch family, distributed in Japan (Northern Honshu and Hokkaido). The heartwood is light reddish brown, and the sapwood is yellowish white with a clear boundary. There is little difference between earlywood and latewood in grain, and the annual rings are not particularly obvious. It is widely used for gymnasium floors because of its abrasion resistance and stability. The growth of the wood varies greatly depending on the conditions of the growing region. The ones with dark reddish heartwood are called and valued as a rare and precious material. In Hokkaido, monarch birch, with more distinct white sapwood, dominates. Beech A deciduous broad leaf tree of the Beech family. Both heartwood and sapwood are white or light pink. The large radial tissue inside the wood trunk shows dark sesame-like dots on the cross grain face and tiger stripes on the straight grain face. It is a heavy timber with good workability, glueability, paintability, and surface finish. It is suitable for bending because of its tenacity and resistance to splitting, and is widely used for furniture, especially for chairs and tables. Japanese Cherry A broad leaf tree of the Rosaceae family, distributed in Japan (Northern Honshu and Hokkaido), the Kuril Islands, Sakhalin, and Northeastern China. The heartwood is reddish brown, and the sapwood is light yellowish brown or yellowish white with a clear boundary. It has moderate hardness and strength, and the bark is dense and uniform. It is excellent in terms of material, color, and workability, and has a wide range of uses, like a material for high-grade furniture, fixture, musical instruments, and carvings. Walnut It is a deciduous broad leaf tree of the Walnut family. The heartwood is purple brown or chocolate brown, and the sapwood is grayish brown. It is popular as a high-grade furniture material and used as a gunstock material because of its beautiful color and grain, as well as its toughness, durability, and low tendency to distort.
