A wood that hangs on the coat tails of genuine or ‘Swietenia’ mahogany and is a readily available alternative very close in colour and general appearance to the real thing.

It differs in being slightly coarser in texture, slightly less stable, slightly less durable and has less perfect workability. These aspects of the timber are reflected in the much lower cost.
