Bubinga is an exceptionally dense and durable African hardwood. Frequently referred
to as African Rosewood due to its similar aesthetics, this premium wood features a vibrant
reddish-brown heartwood often accented with dark purple or black streaks. Woodworkers
highly prize Bubinga for its remarkable strength-to-weight ratio and its tendency to display
breathtaking, highly figured grain patterns, including waterfall, quilted, and flamed variations.
Bubinga is a premier choice for high-end furniture, musical instruments, and decorative turned objects.
