Genuine Mahogany

Genuine mahogany, native to Central and South America, is a timeless hardwood prized for its rich, changing tones and superb workability. When freshly cut, it displays a range of yellowish, reddish, pinkish, or salmon hues, which deepen into a rich red or brown as it ages, though prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause some fading. Its straight grain, moderate density, and resistance to decay make it easy to machine, carve, and finish, yielding a beautiful result. Due to its color variability, several similar-looking species are often marketed as mahogany.
