Canarywood CW08 — 925x127x21mm

Canarywood (Centrolobium spp.)

Canarywood is one of South America’s most visually striking hardwoods — a timber of exceptional colour and character that ranges from pale yellow through vivid orange to deep red-brown, often with dramatic streaks and figure that make every board completely unique. Its bold, warm tones intensify with age and light exposure, giving finished pieces a richness that few other timbers can match. Dense, hard and very durable, it is an outstanding choice for furniture, decorative work, turning and any application where a genuinely eye-catching hardwood is required.

It works well with both hand and machine tools, takes a superb natural finish, and its density gives it excellent stability in use.
