Fun Fact · Yew Wood

The wood behind the English longbow

Yew is a conifer, so it's technically a softwood. But it's hard, dense and springy, which is why medieval English longbows were made from it.

Today: yew is prized by furniture makers for its warm color and tight, swirling grain.

See it up close in Lot 824, a Trosby yew wood linen press in our Barrington sale.

I am so excited for the launch of Cardinal Auction Services! I have seen their faces at many estate auctions for years, and when I do, I always know that I will have a smooth and considerate pickup experience. And the bonus of being greeted by their little dog Lucy in her stroller and security hoodie is a bright spot on my day.
