Characteristic and wood color
Plum has a vivid reddish-brown colour with violet veins. These violet stripes make the wood look particularly decorative and elegant. The plum wood has a beautiful shiny and smooth surface thanks to its hardness and fine even structure. The trunks have a tendency to twist and sometimes cracks are formed. The sapwood with its yellow colour clearly stands out from the heartwood.
