Mopani Overview

LATIN: COLOPHOSPERMUM MOPANE  ORIGIN: SOUTHERN AFRICA

Mopani, native to Southern Africa, is an extremely dense and durable hardwood known for its dark reddish-brown to purplish-brown heartwood, often contrasted by lighter sapwood. Its interlocking grain and fine texture give it a natural luster, though its high density makes it challenging to machine and prone to dulling tools. Mopani finishes beautifully, achieving a glossy, polished surface that enhances its rich color and grain. Commonly used for knife handles, pool cues, pens, turned objects, small decorative items, and musical instruments, mopani is highly prized for its exceptional durability, resistance to decay, and striking aesthetic in fine woodworking.
