The material

Oak's quiet understudy.

As stiff as oak in bending but softer under the tool; a pale, stable West African hardwood that does the job of a pricier timber.

From the West African equatorial belt. Grain is straight to slightly interlocked with a coarse, uniform texture; colour is pale yellow-brown, sometimes with paler yellow stripes.

Interior joinery, light construction, furniture and cabinetmaking.
