The Lebanon Cedar is an evergreen conifer that grows up to 40 m tall and can live for over 1,000 years. It is native to Turkey, Cyprus, Lebanon and Syria. In Central Europe, the Lebanon cedar is primarily found in parks.

The heartwood ranges from honey-yellow to reddish-brown, small and large knots are typical and very common to appear. The sapwood is distinctly pale yellowish in color. The wood contains oils and resins which results in a natural resistence to insects and fungal infestation as well as rot. The wood is considered durable and can therefore be used for outdoor purposes or in carpentry for furniture and interior construction. The wood is easy to work with, saw, and polish.

Available thicknesses are 52, 65, and 80 mm, with widths up to 1.10 m; tabletops are also available.
