Santos Mahogany Hardwood

Most premium hardwoods feature different characteristics that make them special in their own way. Santos Mahogany is no exception. This rich species of Mahogany is deep reddish-brown to orange-brown in color in its heartwood. It is tougher and stronger than typical Genuine Mahogany, and it wears incredibly well over time. This makes it a supreme option for flooring, furniture, cabinets, and even paneling.

Santos Mahogany is grown in countries all the way from Mexico to Argentina. This gorgeous tree is sustainable thanks to growing plantations that practice eco-friendly farming techniques. It isn't produced in as much volume as some of its exported counterparts, but is popular enough to be readily available in most cases.

This wood can have a spicy odor that can be quite pungent when first cut. Those sensitive to respiratory issues should use protection when manipulating and sawing this wood, but it is not dangerous by any means. Santos Mahogany is very resistant to decay and fungi, and is very hard as a rule. It is a highly dense wood that can be polished to a stunning sheen and will not tarnish or dent easily.
