The name says it all! Zebrawood has light brown and dark brown steaks that resemble the coat of a zebra. You’ll find anything from straight quartersawn surfaces to chaotic cathedrals seen in flatsawn material. Also known as Zebrano, this popular wood is commonly used for furniture, tool handles, and even skis.
The wood is prone to tearout due to the often interlocking grain but saws well enough. It glues well and takes finish well though a clear pore filler is needed for a smooth finish. This is another wood that has a notoriously unpleasant smell with worked.
Where is Zebrawood from? West Africa. It is a KJP favourite wood and we look forward to seeing what you build with it!

Working with Thin Lumber
4" and wider thins are resawn from a board thick enough to produce 2 pieces and then planed down to a finished thickness of 1/4". This milling process releases tensions in the board and may well induce slight cupping and/or bowing in the finished piece. These movements are normal and not considered "defects". They will not be grounds for a return or refund.

Dramatic wood. Works and finishes nicely but use caution to avoid tear-out.
Received my lumber and it’s all great quality. Zebrawood is beautiful. The aspen as a substitute for holly is almost identical. I will be ordering again soon!
Quality of the wood is EXCELLENT. Shipping was VERY rapid. This is the first time that I have dealt with KJP Select Hardwoods, and it won't be the last!
