Description

Black Limba

Black limba lumber is a type of wood that comes from the terminalia superba tree, which is primarily found in West Africa. The tree is native to countries such as Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon. These regions provide the ideal climate and conditions for the growth of Terminalia superba, allowing it to flourish and develop its unique characteristics. It is a hardwood that is known for its distinctive grain patterns, which can range from straight and uniform to irregular and wavy. The heartwood of black limba is a light to medium brown color with darker streaks, while the sapwood is a pale yellow color. Black limba is a popular choice for a variety of woodworking projects, including furniture, cabinets, and musical instruments.  The wood is easy to work with using both hand and power tools, and it takes stains and finishes well. Black limba is also resistant to decay and insect damage, making it a good choice for outdoor applications.
