Appearance
The heartwood colour is quite variable and ranges from pale pink to a deep reddish brown. Its colour tends to darken with age and the quarter-sawn surfaces display a gorgeous ribbon-stipe figure.
Workability
The grain can range from straight to interlocked which can pose some problems when surfacing with a hand tool. That being said, it is relatively easy to work and takes glue and finishes well.
Uses
This wood has a whole range of uses that include interior trim, furniture, boat building, turning, veneer, and plywood.
Additional Comments
African Mahogany can display some striking chatoyance that makes the wood surface look like it moves and dances.
