Amazing wood, very much appreciated for its looking and beauty. This timber is highly coveted not only for its looking but also for its tone. It has a similar tone to the Indian Rosewood and the Makassar Ebony, more clear than Rosewood and more harmonious than the Makassar.

Ziricote is a dense and hard wood perfect for the fingerboard.

BOTANIC NAME: Cordia Dodecandra.

COMMON NAMES: Ziricote

ORIGIN: Central America.

DESCRIPTION: Density 805 kg/m3. Ziricote has colour ranges from medium to dark brown, sometimes with either a green or purple hue, with darker bands of black growth rings intermixed. Ziricote has a very unique appearance, which is sometimes referred to as “spider-webbing” grain figure. The pale yellowish sapwood is sometimes incorporated into designs for aesthetic effect, or to cut down on wastage. Grain is straight to slightly interlocked. Medium to fine texture, with good natural luster.

RECOMMENDATIONS Ziricote is fairly easy to work considering its high density. The wood tends to develop end and surface checks during drying, which can be problematic: though the wood is stable once dry. Ziricote turns and finishes well, and in most instances, it can also be glued with no problems.

DRYING: Dries slowly. Risk of deformations or cracks.

USES: Guitar backs and sides, fingerboards.
