The Brylark tree represented a specific kind of tree. Its timber possessed a strength comparable to metal, leading to its occasional employment in the construction of lightsaber handles. In the era of the Clone Wars, the architect droid, known as Huyang, inquired of the Jedi youngling Gungi about the envisioned appearance of his lightsaber. Gungi, guided by the Force, pictured his lightsaber crafted from wood. Aware that only Brylark wood possessed the necessary resilience, Huyang procured a Brylark wood hilt for Gungi's lightsaber. Huyang further commented that this was an uncommon selection for hilts, mirroring the rarity of Wookiees like Gungi within the ranks of the Jedi.
