Overview
Pear sapwood is not clearly differentiated from the heartwood, which is a shade of pinkish brown. Distinction between sapwood and heartwood is particularly difficult in younger trees and heartwood is generally darker and more distinct in older trees.
Pear grain is typically straight and the wood has a very close and uniform texture. Quarter cut wood often shows a large mottled figure.
