Bubinga (Guibourtia spp.) Heartwood ranges from a pinkish red to a darker reddish brown with darker purple or black streaks. Sapwood is a pale straw color and is clearly demarcated from the heartwood. Bubinga is very frequently seen with a variety of figure, including: pommele, flamed, waterfall, quilted, mottled, etc.
Bubinga can grow to very large trees ranging of 130-150 feet tall and 3-6 ft trunk diameter.
Bubinga has a close resemblance to Rosewood, and is often use in place of more expensive woods. Yet Bubinga also features a host of stunning grain figures which make this wood truly unique. Bubinga also has an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.
Common uses include veneer, inlays, fine furniture, cabinetry, turnings, and other specialty items. Since Bubinga trees can grow very large, natural-edge slabs of the wood have also been used in tabletops and other specialized projects.
