Mahogany |
 | | Mahogany is becoming increasingly rare, and is already extinct in parts of its original range. |
 | | Mahogany is fine to medium texture, with uniform to interlocking grain, ranging from straight to wavy or curly. |
 | | Uses: Mahogany is regarded by many as the world's premier wood for fine cabinetry, high-class furniture, trimming fine boats, pianos and other musical instruments, sculpture, joinery, turnery, figured and decorative veneer, interior trim, and carving. |
