Izombé

Color/Appearance: Heartwood color ranges from pale yellow to a darker golden brown, sometimes with darker brown streaks. Figured grain is occasionally seen in boards, particularly curly grain in broad waves.

Workability: Works well with both hand and machine tools, though interlocked grain can sometimes cause tearout. Responds well to steam bending. Glues and finishes well.

Common Uses: Flooring, furniture, cabinetry, millwork, veneer, carvings, and turned objects.
