Color:

Heartwood ranges from pale pink to a deeper reddish brown, sometimes with streaks of medium to dark reddish brown. Colors darken with age. Quartersawn surfaces exhibit a ribbon-stripe appearance.

Grain:

Grain is straight to interlocked, with a medium to coarse texture. Good natural luster and a high degree of chatoyancy.

Workability:

Generally easy to work, though tearout can be a problem if the grain is interlocked. May stain and react with iron-based fasteners in damp conditions. Glues, turns, and finishes well.

Physical properties:

Medium crush strength. Low stiffness and resistance to shock. Poor bending characteristics due to buckling or fiber rupture.
