Character / Color:
Bahia rosewood presents the viewer with an eye-catching and very decorative pattern featuring strong color contrasts. The unusual color combination is made up of a brownish yellow background and clearly demarcated dark pink to red stripes or curls. The beauty of this very hard and fine wood is revealed in a highly polished surface that best shows off the color contrast. It is recommended that the surface be treated with a pigment that protects the wood and maintains its lovely color.
