Product Description

Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) is a light-colored, moderately soft hardwood known for its subtle grain and excellent workability. The wood typically ranges from pale cream to light grayish-tan, sometimes with faint brown or greenish tones that give it a unique, understated look. Hackberry turns easily with sharp tools, producing smooth cuts and gentle curves. Its fine, even grain sands quickly and accepts stains and finishes well, making it a versatile choice for both functional and decorative turning projects. When properly dried, hackberry offers good stability, though it is softer than many hardwoods. Common uses include turning blanks, bowls, spindles, utility items, furniture components, and craft projects.
