Panga Panga Turning Squares

Millettia Stuhlmannii

This Cental African tree is scarce on the American market. It has a similar apperance to its close relative, Wenge. Hard and heavy with a medium to coarse texture, it can have some porousness to the grain.

Panga Panga was popular in the early 1990's when Wenge all but disappeared because of supply problems in the Congo basin. It makes beautiful furniture, turnings, and precious boxes, having a deep, dark chocolate brown color once finished, though still a little lighter in color than Wenge.
