Working and finishing Afromosia (African Teak)
Marketed by Kingma as "African Teak." It resembles true Teak (Tectona grandis) in appearance and durability but is a different genus entirely and lacks teak's oily surface; machines and glues more readily than teak as a result.
Takes oil and film finishes evenly; a popular, more affordable substitute for genuine teak in furniture and exterior joinery.
Sold as is. Grain, colour and figure vary from piece to piece. Confirm the dimensions your build needs before you buy.
