Apricot Wood – Dense, Fine-Grained & Beautifully Colored for Premium Woodworking
Apricot wood is a highly prized fruitwood known for its rich color, fine grain, and excellent strength, making it a favorite among turners, carvers, and fine furniture makers. With natural hues ranging from warm gold and honey to deep reddish-browns, Apricot offers exceptional visual character and a luxurious look in finished pieces.
Why Woodworkers Choose Apricot Wood
Fine, Even Grain – Ideal for precision work, producing crisp details and exceptionally smooth finishes.
Strong & Durable – Dense and hard, Apricot holds up well in small specialty crafts and long-lasting projects.
Rich Natural Color – Beautiful warm tones that intensify under oil or gloss finishes, requiring little to no stain.
Excellent Workability – Turns, carves, and sands cleanly with sharp tools, making it a pleasure to work with for detailed crafts.

Why Apricot Wood Stands Out
Apricot combines the best qualities of fruitwoods—dense structure, refined grain, and striking natural color—making it a go-to material for woodworkers seeking beauty and performance. Whether you’re crafting a functional tool handle or a high-end decorative piece, Apricot delivers exceptional results with consistent quality.
