Olivewood

(Olea capensis) Light to medium brown with streaks of black and darker brown running through it. Has a fine texture with a shallow interlocked grain giving it a marbled appearance. Glues well, it is recommended to pre-bore before nailing or screwing. Polishes up well and gives a smooth even finish. Excellent for decorative turnings, inlay, and high end custom furniture. Central African Republic.
