Hard Maple images, growth regions, tree size, properties and typical color variations when used for wooden utensils - Earlywood
Hard Maple is one of the hardest and most widely used of all North American hardwoods. Although it may seem soft when compared to some of the other woods that we use at Earlywood, it is commonly used in applications that call for a wood that will hold up to abuse. Common uses of hard maple are gym floors, bowling alleys, butcher blocks and baseball bats. Its color ranges from cream to white and can show some yellow or gold when treated. It sheds the leaf of the Canadian flag and is commonly tapped and made into delicious maple syrup. It has straight grain and fine pores. See our wood care section for tips on keeping your hard maple utensils looking just the way you like them.
