Jack Wood

Jackwood, also known as jackfruit wood, comes from the jackfruit tree (Artocarpus heterophyllus), which is native to parts of South and Southeast Asia. The tree is best known for its large, edible fruit, but the wood is also valued for various uses in furniture making, carpentry, and crafts.Jackwood is typically light to medium brown, often with a yellowish or golden hue. The color can darken over time, adding a rich, warm patina.The grain of jackfruit wood is usually straight or interlocking, which can give it an interesting texture. It has a fine to medium texture, which can appear smooth or slightly porous depending on the cut and finish.
