Quarter Cut / Quarter Sawn / Straight Grain - Glossary

The crown cut terms describe the appearance of radial cut grain orientation. This type of cutting is particularly suited to species and varieties such as English Oak, European Oak, Russian Oak, Beech, Sycamore and Maple that display a very attractive medullar ray on the quarter sawn face. The resultant grain is straight rather than flowery.
