County Floors :: Unfinished Flooring :: Cocobolo(Rosewood)
Scientific Name:
Dalbergia retusa
Appearance:
Cocobolo is somewhat variable in color when freshly sawn, but the heartwood usually ages to a deep rich orange-red with black striping or mottling on exposure to light and air. This oily wood has a fine-to-medium texture with a straight interlocked grain and low luster. It is slightly pungent and fragrant when worked.
