Field Maple

Acer campestre

Sapwood commonly used: nearly white to off-white/cream with occasional reddish/golden hue; heartwood darker reddish brown; sometimes curly/quilted figure.

Field maple (Acer campestre) is a European maple with a light colour and fine, close grain. It’s used for turning, small furniture, interior joinery, and carving; it works cleanly but has low natural durability and is best kept for indoor applications.
