Wooden Tops 8. Lime

Lime wood is a popular choice in furniture manufacture as it's easy to work with, resists warping and takes a good polish. It's also used to make piano keys and sounding boards, as well as bodies of guitars and bases. Lime wood has proved popular with carving aristocracy like Grinling Gibbons. As this material is lightweight but strong, it's often been used to make window blinds and shutters.
