Ambrosia Maple Lumber

Ambrosia Maple Lumber

Ambrosia Maple is Hard Maple with a story. The distinctive blue-gray streaks and mineral staining are caused by the Ambrosia beetle, which bores into the living tree and introduces a fungus that creates the species' signature figured pattern. No two boards are alike — making Ambrosia Maple one of the most visually interesting domestic hardwoods available at an accessible price point.

Why Choose Ambrosia Maple?

• Unique blue-gray streaking and mineral figure — no two boards the same
• Creamy white base color with warm tan and gray tones
• Same hardness and workability as Hard Maple
• Available in 4/4 to 8/4 thicknesses
• Excellent value — figured hardwood character at a fraction of exotic pricing

Common Uses

Furniture, cutting boards, boxes, accent pieces, cabinet doors, and any project where natural figure and character are part of the design. Sold by the board foot.
