SAPELE STAINS
Sapele is a hardwood tree native to central Africa and is obtained from sustainably managed forests. The timber is in the same strength category as Oak, and is considerably stronger than African Mahogany. Natural coloring is a medium reddish-brown, and because it is quarter sawn, Sapele is characterized by well-defined ribbon stripe figuring. As with other mahogany family woods, the color will darken slightly with age and UV light exposure.
Pacific Crest Industries takes great care in combining high quality select hardwoods with the best finishing techniques. Slight color inconsistency between the finished product and an existing sample may occur due to the inherent graining, density, and raw base color of the selected hardwood. This is not considered a defect, but merely the result of applying pigmented colors on natural woods.
