Description

Pear wood is considered to be a special, hard and high-quality native wood. The pear wood processed at MÜHLE comes mainly from orchards in southern Germany whose trees can no longer be used for fruit cultivation.

The wood used is carefully dried over a period of months to achieve a high degree of dimensional stability. Squared timbers are first sawn from the dried wood sections, which are then turned into handles and carefully sanded. Polishing with fine oils seals the surfaces and gives them a satin sheen.

The light, yellowish-reddish brown wood of the pear tree has a very fine, smooth and regular structure. Under the light’s influence, it can darken a little over the years.

The wood used is FSC® certified and comes from Austria.
