Wood

wood | ˈwu̇d

noun

A hard, fibrous substance that makes up the structure of trees and shrubs

Wood is a fibrous substance that makes up the core structure of trees and various types of shrubs and other plants. It is a durable, highly flexible material that can be used in a range of different applications. It can be inlaid or carved into rings, but is considered not as durable as metals and will need to be replaced periodically, especially with heavy use or exposure to the elements. To create the same woodlike look without the durability issues, mokumé is a popular alternative that is often recommended for rings or other pieces of often-worn jewelry that cannot withstand regular use with wood in them.
