ANGICO WOOD
Angico flat cut wood veneer displays an earthy, contrasting color palette, reminiscent of the Rosewood species (although it is not a relative). In fact, we consider this species as a highly suitable alternative for Santos Rosewood. Typically flat cut, Angico has rich reddish brown heartwood with slightly darker cathedrals. It can also display pinks, yellows, and lighter brown tones, making it overall a very colorful and vibrant species.
Angico’s natural luster and fine to medium grain coupled with its array of colors and appealing patterns make it a fine choice for creating visually striking interior spaces.
Common Uses for Angico Flat Cut Wood Veneer: Architectural millwork, cabinetry and furniture, as well as luxury yacht and aircraft interiors.
The Tree: Angico is a large tree with a wide growth range found all over the world, and especially in South America and India. Angico typically reaches heights up to 100 feet with trunk diameters around four feet. Because the bole is usually clear of branches up to 50 feet, Angico is an ideal timber for architectural veneer use.
A Little History: Its timber has various uses within its native regions, most notably structural uses such as heavy duty flooring and mine timbers.
Region: South America
