Wenge, 150 x 20 x 20 mm

This tropical wood from West Africa has a light brown core, which takes on a coffee-coloured hue when dry. The richly contrasting, coarse light/dark structure, usually combined with irregular or interlocked grain, gives wenge its exceptionally decorative character. The hard and heavy wood is used for high-quality interior design furnishings and fittings, but also for turning and carving. Density 860 kg/m³
