Wenge is a very precious type of wood, which is mainly used in the production of design objects and furniture due to its particular characteristics. Sapwood and heartwood are well differentiated.The sapwood is whitish, differentiated from the dark brown heartwood variegated by blackish stripes. This type of wood is very beautiful, with its characteristic grain, but it also boasts great resistance, which makes it the perfect raw material for the construction of furniture. We are talking about a material that has rather high costs when compared to other solutions on the market with regard to interior design, but it’s completely justified.
It is difficult to work with due to its hardness and its resin content. This wood is generally used for the production of luxury furniture, parquet and flooring. Wenge is suitable for interior and exterior joinery and coatings. Given its decorative characteristics, valuable veneers, sculptures and objects are in general obtained.
