Alaskan Yellow Cedar combines the density, longevity, and resilience of any hardwood with a bright coloration typically reserved for more delicate woods.
Technically a member of the Cypress family, this vibrant hardwood has become increasingly popular for construction purposes, especially those involving water, such as boats, bridges, etc. Boasting durability, stability, and a natural resistance to decay, craftsman choose Alaskan Yellow Cedar when they want to build something special that will last.
