The Right Wood for Wood Carving

The choice of wood is a central factor in sculpture. Different types of wood allow for different forms of expression and working methods.

• Basswood– soft, dimensionally stable, and ideal for fine details
• Swiss Pine– pleasant to work with a characteristic scent
• Alder– uniform grain for medium-sized sculptures
• Maple– harder, precise, and durable for delicate work

All woods offered are air-dried or kiln-dried, low in cracks, and evenly grown – perfect for demanding wood carving projects.
