American Ash is a light-toned hardwood prized for its clean grain, strength, and versatility. With its pale creamy color, striking cathedral patterns, and excellent shock resistance, it’s a popular choice for modern, minimalist designs as well as everyday functional furniture. Its workability and visual clarity make it a top contender for slab dining tables, desks, and shelving.
