Different Wood Material of Table Clock
The American Walnut!

Juglans nigra, the eastern American Black Walnut, is a species of deciduous tree in the walnut family. Black walnut is an incredibly important tree commercially as the wood is a deep brown color and easily worked which makes it excellent for the manufacture of clocks. The bark is typically grey-black and deeply furrowed into thin ridges which gives the bark a truly unique diamond shaped pattern.
The Black Walnut was introduced into Europe in 1629 and is highly prized for its dark-colored, straight grained, true heartwood. It is heavy, strong, shock resistant and yet can be easily split and worked. The wood can be kiln dried and holds its shape well after seasoning, which makes this wood even more attractive for wood working and clock making.

African Zebrano Wood

Zebrawood is characterized by a striped figure that is reminiscent of a zebra. Zebrawood was first recorded in the British Customs returns for 1773 when 180 pieces of zebrawood were imported from the Mosquito Coast, a British colony (now the Republic of Honduras and Nicaragua) and was commonly used in British furniture-making between 1810 and 1860.
The wood is now imported from central Africa, (Gabon, Cameroon and Congo) and its highly figured heartwood is pale golden yellow, distinct from the very pale color of the sapwood and features narrow streaks of dark brown to black. Zebrawood can also be a pale brown with regular or irregular marks of dark brown in varying widths. It is almost always quartersawn to get the exciting alternating color pattern you see and these streaks give the heartwood a zebra-stripe appearance hence the name zebrawood.

Rosewood Timber

Dalbergia sissoo, known commonly as North Indian rosewood is a fast-growing, hardy, deciduous rosewood tree native to the Indian subcontinent and southern Iran. It is the best known economic timber species of the rosewood sold internationally, but it is also used as fuel wood and for shade and shelter.
After teak, it is the most important cultivated timber tree of Bihar, which is the largest producer of Rosewood in India. In Bihar, the tree is planted on roadsides, along canals, and as a shade tree for tea plantations. It is also commonly planted in southern Indian cities such as Bangalore.

Oak Wood

The mighty Oak is a common symbol of strength and endurance and has been chosen as the national tree of many countries. In England, oaks have been a national symbol dating back to at least the sixteenth century, often used by Shakespeare to convey heritage and power.
In England today the Oak remain a symbol of the nation's history, traditions, and the beauty of its countryside. Oak wood is expensive because it is a hardwood. Hardwoods are more dense, strong and durable but grow much slower than softwood which makes them more expensive. As Oak resists everyday wear and tear whilst offering natural beauty it fits almost any home decor style as a truly stylish and elegant feature.

Olive Wood

Olive wood is farmed form the trees of Olea europaea. It is rich and vibrant in its color which is prized all around the world for its appearance, density, straight grain and fine texture. Originally found around the eastern coast of Mediterranean Olive wood is very strong, but it has a high sensitivity to outside elements and insect attacks. Because of this it is commonly only user for indoor furniture such as wooden clocks and tapas bowls.
Visually, olive wood has a strikingly rich and colorful appearance, which makes it perfect for use in decorative objects which can be easily polished to a high degree.

Maple Wood

The Maple is one of America’s most beloved trees and the history of maple is as intriguing as the tree itself, spanning several centuries.
Maple trees existed in North America for hundreds of years and the sugary sap was harvested by Native Americans. However, modern maple tree history began in 1663 when the chemist Robert Boyle described the “new world” tree to Europeans. As well as describing the sugar-making process used by Native Americans he noted other interesting maple tree uses such as how the Native Americans brewed cough medicine from the tree’s inner bark how the ashes made soap and how settlers used the bark as a dye. Over time people also were known to consume the sap as a spring tonic, while others ingested it to treat liver and kidney problems.

Mango Wood

Mango wood does not have a large presence on the worldwide market however its heartwood is still used extensively in India for the production of cheaper furniture, musical instruments and flooring.
There are several reasons why the Mango tree is experiencing a big boom in popularity right now, the first because of its speed of growth which is between seven and fifteen years. The second benefit is that harvesting does not require extensive processing, seasoning, and drying. It can be sent to final processing almost immediately after cutting and the third reason why Mango wood has experienced growth worldwide is that many of its core and visual characteristics are similar to the popular teak.
