Siberian Larch
This is a naturally durable timber much used for external cladding, and also in the cleanest grades for boat-planking. We carry two different stock lines in this timber – Square edged in Unsorted grade (US) – the best available, for cladding and general joinery work, and Waney edged 0/1 Grade – again the best available, which is of exceptional quality and is used for boat-work and high class joinery. Siberian Larch is very slow grown with a medium to fine texture.
