Bocote WoodThe figured wood that comes from the bocote tree is highly prized for its hues of brown, its wildly figured appearance and its unbelievable shine. Bocote wood, which is grown throughout Mexico and South America, is strong and very dense. The irregular black streaks that can be found in the wood's grain gives bocote a unique appearance that is easily identifiable.
Bocote wood is generally thought to be one of the best materials to use for ornamental turnings and accents in larger projects due to its unique apperance. In addition, bocote is also a favorite for construction of cabinetry, boat decking and veneers.
