What Is Mahogany?

Mahogany is a beautiful hardwood that can be found in many places around the world and usually grows from southern Mexico to Brazil. The grain in mahogany is usually straight, but sometimes it can be wavy and even curly and the texture is uniform, ranging from fine to coarse. Mahogany is a very strong, sturdy wood and is very resistant to decay, so it is excellent for cabinetry and moldings, even in damp environments. The color of mahogany is usually a medium reddish brown, and the wood darkens as it ages, making it more and more beautiful over time. (more…)
