V092 – IROKO QUARTER
The uniform yellowish-brown wood is relatively undecorative, but good dimensions and widths are available.
It is very resistant to fungi and insect attack, but not completely, unlike real teak.
The wood dust from Iroko is considered harmful to health, and in England even carcinogenic.

V016 – ROSE WOOD CROWN
The heartwood is yellowish, irregularly veined with reddish veins, striped or spotted, and fades when exposed to light and air, but is nevertheless very decorative.
Due to the small diameter, it is often flawed and has cracks in the heart, so it is only suitable for small furniture and inlaid furniture, and rarely for interior design.
V018 – BIRDS EYE MAPLE
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.
