ANIGRE WOOD
Anigre quarter cut wood veneer is generally light to medium creamy yellow-brown or golden yellow, sometimes seen with a slight pink hue. Due to its light color and naturally soft aesthetic, Anigre can create a bright and inviting environment wherever it’s used. And highly figured fiddleback and block mottle logs can elevate architectural projects to the next level.
Also because of its light palette, fine grain, and velvety texture, Anigre can easily be dyed to visually replicate cherry veneer, another naturally elegant and welcoming species choice. This is especially true for quarter cut Anigre as it has more available widths than cherry, generally speaking.
Overall, Anigre is valued for its light, neutral color, fine grain, and versatility, making it a preferred choice for many architects and designers.
Common Uses for Anigre Quarter Cut Wood Veneer: Architectural panels, millwork, furniture, and both interior boat and yacht design. Because of its tonal qualities, this species is also used for musical instruments, especially guitars and pianos.
