Product type
Mahogany lumber is a type of hardwood known for its rich color, durability, and fine grain. It is sourced from various species of the Swietenia genus, primarily found in tropical regions. The wood is often characterized by its reddish-brown hue that deepens over time, making it a popular choice for high-end furniture and cabinetry. Mahogany is also resistant to warping and swelling, which enhances its appeal for both indoor and outdoor applications.
