Description:	By whatever name mahogany is known by whether it is genuine mahogany, Honduras mahogany, South American mahogany, Peruvian mahogany, etc, this specie is probably the single most respected all time furniture wood. Mahogany is the benchmark for stability, contains a good level of chatoyancy, has a rich consistent color and finishes beautifully. Unfortunately this resource is also one of the most abused all time species also. For years mahogany trees have been harvested in a completely unregulated environment, under valued to the point where it was widely used as a paint grade molding instead of being saved for fine furniture and musical instruments. With proper management this specie could have been used for generations instead of being responsible for the deforestation of the Amazon basin. One of the finest hardwoods Abused resource Can be highly figured Consistent Red color *Benchmark for stability
