LATIN: GUIBOURTIA DEMEUSEI ORIGIN: CENTRAL AFRICA
Bubinga, native to Africa, is a dense and durable hardwood known for its warm reddish-brown tones, often accented with darker streaks or unique figuring like waterfall or pommele patterns. When freshly cut, the wood displays a pinkish hue, which deepens to a rich reddish-brown as it ages. Renowned for its strength and stability, it resists wear and finishes beautifully with a natural luster. Its density and interlocking grain can make machining challenging, requiring sharp tools and attention to prevent tear-out. Bubinga is commonly used for fine furniture, veneers, musical instruments, and turned objects, valued for its elegance and versatility in both decorative and functional projects.
