Makoré is an African wood, a so-called redwood with no marked stripes in the quarter. It is also called Douka in some African areas.

The makore can be figured; in some cases, this figure is dispatched by more or less regular blocks, then it becomes a specialty called block mottle Makore.

Its fine grain makes it difficult to distinguish from its cousin Moabi.

Used in decoration and furnishings, it is often used in violin making.

Product Description:

Genuine wood sliced-veneer sheets.

These veneers are raw without a finish or any fleece back.

The veneer surface is similar to plane wood. However, it will be preferable to forecast a light sanding after gluing.

The veneers are offered here as wood-sliced sheets of one and unique thickness.

Both faces of these veneers are the same, without fleece back or glue.

Even if the veneer's sides had been cut relatively straight, it isn't a precise parallel clipping; some veneers may have kept the decreasing shape of the tree, wider at the bottom end and narrower at the top end.

Very occasionally, some veneers' sides have traces of unclipped wane, but our veneers are measured at the narrowest, as explained in the paragraph "Dimensions."

As genuine natural wood, all finishing products are acceptable as long these products are meant to be for wood usage.

The choice of the finished product must be consistent with the final usage realization.
