Artists can feel good about using products made from Lyptus® Wood.
The wood is harder than oak, enabling easels made of lyptus to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use.
The Eucalyptus wood used in the Jack Richeson’s Lyptus® Wood Easels come from plantations that blend the managed eucalyptus growth with the native tropic forest rescued from old grazing lands.
Grain: Straight grain and fine, even texture.
Characteristics: Great variety of color. Because the trees are hand–pruned throughout their growth years, wood is very uniform and has few knots.
Durability: Lyptus® has similar density, strength and technical properties as hardwood maple. Lyptus® is about 45% heavier than Mahogany, while the boards are much straighter, flatter and smoother.
Color: The color of Lyptus® varies from pink to pale red–brown with dark pink variations.
