RV103-BURMA TEAK

The heartwood is light brown to brown, and the grain appears as reddish-black dots. The most desirable arrangement of these dots is that they are distributed as evenly as possible across the surface. The black poplar is the only poplar species that develops grain growth.

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.

Very good veneer wood, exclusively sliced ​​wood for face veneer. Preferred as fitting wood in interior design and for furniture. Good and light qualities are constantly sought after but are becoming increasingly difficult to find due to the high demand. Also very sought after as sawn wood.

Has a very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake. The wood itself is a reddish brown with grey or light brown rays, which result in a lace pattern when quartersawn. Like other woods that exhibit the strongest figure in quartersawn pieces, (such as Sycamore), Lacewood has the most pronounced figure and displays the largest flecks when perfectly quartersawn; this is due to the wood’s wide medullary rays, whose layout can be seen the clearest when looking at the end grain.
