DV035 – DYED CHECHEN VENEER

Pale pink to dark heartwood, quickly darkening to reddish brown. Aboudikro, which mainly comes from the Ivory Coast, is generally darker than wood from other growing areas. Blocks with numerous bark galls, color defects or water cracks are not suitable for veneer production.

Highly sought-after and considered high-quality furniture wood for interior design and high-end furniture construction. Due to its high strength and elasticity, it is also suitable for chair and seating furniture production. Particularly used for gun stocks and aircraft propellers. Traditional wood for piano and grand piano construction.

Tiny knots in the grain resemble small bird’s eyes. The figure is reportedly caused by unfavorable growing conditions for the tree. The tree attempts to start numerous new buds to get more sunlight, but with poor growing conditions the new shoots are aborted, and afterward, some tiny knots remain.

Veneer wood, exclusively as front veneer in the furniture industry (main countries: Great Britain, USA), in interior design, and the piano industry. Lengths usually up to 1.50 m.
