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.
We will be closed for a short holiday from Friday 1st April reopening Monday 11th April. It will not be possible to process online shop orders received after 30th March until our return on the 11th April. Please consider this when placing an order in our shop or visiting our warehouse.

We take the view that it is still appropriate to ask that masks be worn in the warehouse and that customers use the hand cleanser on entry. We will also be open on the basis of a maximum of 3 customers at any one time and ask that social distancing measures still be observed. Please read the notices at the door before you come in.
