V092 – IROKO QUARTER

Great demand for closely striped blocks with a center diameter of 1 m and above.

The heartwood is bright coral red to reddish brown, also orange brown and very decorative. The knife boards require intensive dampening, veneers must be stored covered, otherwise they will darken quickly.

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.

Walnut burl comes in many forms: from head veneer to half burl (cluster) to full burl, which is still one of the most expensive and sought-after veneers. Frequent cracks within the trunk.
