Default Ebiera

Ebiara (berlinia grandiflora) is also known as Red Zebrawood, berlinia, aben, poculi, and essaben. This exotic hardwood comes mostly from West African countries such as Cameroon, Gabon, Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast, Congo and Zaire where the tress can be found growing up to 130 feet tall and with trunk diameters up to 48 inches. Ebiara has a whitish pink sapwood with a heartwood color that ranges from red to brown and purplish brown streaks throughout. When quartersawn this timber resembles Zebrawood but without the Zebrawood odor. Tap is somewhat brighter than IRW.
