Walnut:
A beautiful chocolate brown wood that has been used for centuries. A nicely grained wood with consistent coloring; always a favorite.
African (Ribbon Stripe) Mahogany:
A reddish, rich, dense wood. Because it is quarter sawn, this beautiful wood has golden streaks that shimmer when struck by the light; truly an eye-popper
Cherry:
A reddish wood that has been used in American cabinetry for centuries. Known for its subtle grain and warm, mellow patina; a classic.
Exotic and Figured Woods:
I have a good supplier of exotic hardwoods from around the world. If there is something special you would like, they should have it or the ability to get it. Prices will depend on cost of the wood choice, the size of the project, and the availability of materials. Some of the woods I've used are:
- Bolivian Rosewood-S.A.
- Rambutan-Malaysia
- Zercote-C.A.
- Bocote-C.A.
- African Satinwood-Africa
- Padauk-Malaysia
- Curly Maple-N.A.
