Also known as Red Zebrawood, Ebiara (Berlinia grandiflora) is recognized for its dark purplish-brown striping or irregular veining, often visible on quartered faces. Heartwood color varies from pink-red to rich dark reddish-brown. With its moderately coarse texture and attractive natural sheen, Ebiara works easily using sharp tooling. It is commonly used for veneer, fine furniture, cabinetry, turned pieces, and other specialty woodworking projects.
