JATOBA

Jatoba is a type of hardwood that is native to South America. It is one of the densest woods in the world, and it is often used in construction and furniture-making. Jatoba wood is reddish-brown in color, and it has a pronounced grain pattern. The wood is extremely tough and resistant to wear, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas. Jatoba is also resistant to rot and insect damage, making it a popular choice for outdoor furniture. Since Jatoba is a very dense wood,  it is very difficult to work with by hand. However, it takes a lovely finish and can be a stunning addition to any home.
