what kinds of trees are desks made of?

Answer 1

Hardwoods: oak, cherry, mahogany, maple, walnut are the most popular woods. These are the really nice ones.
The lesser expensive desks are made of veneers which are cheaper wood or composites covered by a thin strip of a hardwood (That's a simple explanation)

Answer 2

All....it depends on what you want to buy and how much you are willing to spend. All furniture can be made from any of the woods....ash, mahogany, oak, burl, teak, rosewood, etc. Pine is the least expensive material. Solid woods will be the most expensive. A lot of the furniture industry uses solid wood veneers over cheaper woods and the cheapest furniture is made from a processed wood product called MDF.

Answer 3

Dead trees! Usaually Maple, Oak, Hickory and then hard and soft pine. Most Dining room sets and tables are Cherry or Mahogany. The so called Fruit and Nut woods are very hard and used for furniture
