CABREUVA

Myocarpus spp.

Myocarpus fastigiatus and M. frondosus

NOTE: this is the same as oleo pardo and I will merge the two pages at some point



my samples:


two small planks with color that is just a little more orange than the wood itself. See the smaller plank directly below.


plank and end grain, cut from one of the larger planks directly above. These pics has very accurate color.
end grain closeup of the piece directly above


planks with accurate color. Note the total lack of orange, unlike some other pieces which have some orange tint --- these are both more reddish-brown, with the first plank having more red than the second one.


planks and a closeup --- the actual wood color on these is a just a shade more purple and less red than what is shown here



web pics:


planks

web-based pics of planks that I have purchased. The color in the first pic is pretty accurate, the second is a little off and the third is just a joke.
