<Anecdote>
In Japanese culture, it is said that planting a quince tree in the front of the garden and an oak tree in the back is good for business prosperity, as it is said to be responsible for the meaning of “lend money but not borrow.”
<Producing area>
Mainly in Yamanashi, Yamagata, Ehime, Kagawa, Nagano, and Nara prefectures
<Features>
It is reddish-brown to yellow-brown in color with clear growth rings. It has a dark and light striped pattern, and on rare occasions, beautiful knobs appear.
There are few distortions or cracks, and although it is heavy and hard, it has good workability. Since it is a cross-grained wood, it is easy to get side grains, so be careful when planing. It becomes glossy when polished, but it does not change much over time.
<Color tone>
The division of the sapwood is clear: the sapwood is pale yellowish-white, and the heartwood is reddish-brown with a slight purplish tinge. The grain of the wood intersects, and a ribbon pattern appears on the straight-grained surface.
<Application>
Furniture, utensils, musical instruments, karaki Buddhist altars, etc. It is used as a building material for floor pillars and floor coverings, and as a vehicle material for siding and floor coverings.
<Request regarding storage of refills>
Store in a cool place, avoiding high temperatures.
