About The Material These Picks Are Made From:

Wooden plectrums have been used traditionally throughout the world since the dawn of string instruments millennia ago.

It is generally rare and hard to find many items made from Mulberry Wood as it is usually not grown commercially for its timber, but for its fruit. However Mulberry is an excellent wood with many great qualities. Mulberry Wood is known for its uniform and straight medium grain texture and natural luster, as well as its durability. Mulberry is classified as a hardwood, which means it is a strong and lost lasting wood, usually somewhat higher in hardness than Ash or Oak. The heartwood from the Mulberry tree is a golden brown color, which can darken to a reddish brown over time, while the sapwood tends to be a light yellow to white hue.

Mulberry Wood comes from a genus of trees found natively in both the old world and the Americas, and is the source of the Mulberry fruit. Mulberry Wood is part of the Moraceae family, which also includes figs, jackfruit, and breadfruit plants.

Mulberry trees grow in temperate to warm environments, can reach heights of up to 50-80 feet, and tend to grow very quickly in their early years, while many hardwoods take 50-75 years or more to fully mature. Mulberry trees also have multiple uses, primarily fruit production during the prime of the trees life, and then seeing a second life being used for the timber. An interesting fact about the Mulberry is that the White Mulberry is the sole source of food for silk worms, hence vital to all silk production in the world.

Because of the rapid early maturation and the dual purpose compared to many trees used for timber, it could be considered a very environmentally friendly and sustainable species of wood. Mulberry Wood has traditionally been used for a wide variety of purposes including musical instruments, furniture, decorative wood objects, and more.
