Species: Jelutong
The trees that produce this light-coloured Southeast Asian timber are better known for their sap, historically tapped for use in latex. Among those who know it, Jelutong is a favourite for carving—its low density makes it exceptionally easy to work, while its excellent dimensional stability and ability to take stain and finish make it highly versatile. That said, it is decidedly non-durable and best suited to indoor applications only.Grain is generally straight, though it can occasionally be interlocked, with a fine to medium-fine, uniform texture and a subtle natural lustre. All of this contributes to its excellent working and finishing properties.Before chewing gum production shifted to synthetics, latex derived from the sap of Dyera costulata kept this species in steady demand. In its native Southeast Asia, the wood is commonly used in much the same way as Basswood.Trees can reach impressive heights, so wide, clear boards are not uncommon—although finding available lumber in the U.S. still is.
