About Cocobolo:

Cocobolo is somewhat variable in color from yellow, orange, red, to shades of brown with streaks of black or purple. The heartwood usually ages to a deep rich orange-red with black striping or mottling on exposure to light and air. Its sapwood is often a very pale yellow. Colors are pale when freshly sanded and darken with age.

This oily wood has a fine-to-medium texture with a straight interlocked grain and low luster. It has small to medium sized pores.

A rosewood, Cocobolo has natural oils that make it resistant to decay.

Cocobolo is in short supply and high demand and can be expensive. It is prized for its lovely color and figure.

Cocobolo is said to be stronger and denser than Brazilian Rosewood.
