About Ovangkol
Ovangkol veneer, sourced from the Guibourtia ehie tree of West Africa, is a warm reddish-brown hardwood veneer in the rosewood family, marked by bold dark streaking running through a golden-brown ground. This high-contrast figure gives Ovangkol a distinctive, energetic appearance well suited to feature walls and statement furniture pieces.
Popular in fine furniture and musical instrument making for its tonal richness, Ovangkol brings warmth and drama to interior surfaces while remaining relatively stable and easy to finish.
