Bubinga (Guibourtia spp.), an African species also known as
African rosewood, is a beautiful dense hardwood with a rose-colored background
and darker purple striping. Turns and machines well with sharp tools. Due to
bubinga's high density and natural oils, it takes a high polish. Common uses
for bubinga include veneer, inlays, fine furniture, cabinetry, turnings, and
other specialty items. Since bubinga trees can grow so large, natural-edge
slabs of the wood have also been used in tabletops and other specialized
projects. Larger blocks are sawn to +/- 1/4" of size listed, smaller
blocks +/- 1/8". Spindle stock (1-1/2" - 2") dimensions are +/-
1/8". Grain runs with the longest dimension.

Due to the nature of wood movement, shrinkage and expansion
are possible. Please measure each piece carefully before starting any project.
Wood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are
alike to start with, while the same wood growing in different locales can vary
greatly even though it is the exact same species.
