Basswood's color palette ranges from creamy white to light beige, with occasional chocolate-colored striations. In earlier times basswood's light weight made it a popular choice in the construction of ladders and stage coaches, and it's a woodcarver's choice for its workability.

Basswood has a straight and fine grain with a fine and uniform texture.
