Amboyna wood

Amboyna wood is an exotic wood that originates from Indonesia, specifically from the island of Ambon and the Moluccas. It boasts a distinctive grain and a rich color spectrum, ranging from warm brown to reddish-brown. The wood is renowned for its hardness, stability, and resistance to decay and pests.

Due to its beauty and durability, Amboyna wood was frequently employed in the crafting of high-quality furniture and decorative items. In the Art Deco style, Amboyna wood was often used for veneering furniture and as an embellishment to achieve a luxurious and sophisticated look. The wood’s distinctive grain was often accentuated through intricate finishing and polishing techniques.
