Mahogany - Khaya Nyasica Species 

Singapore local wood. The place where you buy Mahogany wood planks in Singapore. 

Khaya Nyasica is native to Tropical Africa and was introduced to Singapore in the late 1970s. The sapwood is yellowish-brown. The heartwood is pink when freshly sawn. Through exposure, it will turn into pink-brown or dark brown. Khaya has pretty interlocked grains. The African Mahogany is suitable for furniture and cabinet work due to its high quality. 

The Mahogany is really suitable for wood cutting boards and serving boards. It can also be used as your wooden wall shelf. If you are looking to customize or build your own wood table, the Khaya (African Mahogany) is also a good choice. It will make into an elegant, reddish brown wooden dining table or coffee table.

If you are a carpenter or a wood worker, the Khaya wood planks will allow you to create amazing products.

Differences between finishing

Planed: For planed finish, the planks are run through the planer on both sides to get an even thickness across the length. You can expect some "splinters", surface cracks, slight warping, rough surface, edges that are not square on the planks.

Sanded smooth: The planks will be sanded smooth and run through the jointer for squareness. The planks are sanded to a 320 grit finish.

Oil finish: The planks will undergo smoothing through sanding, followed by the application of a premium oil to preserve the inherent charm and beauty of the natural wood surfaces.

Lead time: 7-10 working days

Disclaimer: As each tree log is unique despite being of the same species, there may be variations in colour, tones and grain on each individual piece or among the products. Please be advised that exchanges are not allowed due to the natural variations in colour.
