Wenge

Wenge is an African species known for its very dark color and distinctive appearance. Its palette generally ranges from very dark brown to almost black, often crossed with lighter streaks that create a strong natural contrast. The contrasts of wenge veneer produce deep and elegant surfaces that bring significant character to panels and furniture.

Native to Central Africa, wenge mainly comes from the species Millettia laurentii. It is widely used in furniture and decorative applications for its unique appearance and dark tone. In decorative veneer, wenge is particularly appreciated in contemporary interiors and high-end furniture where a wood with strong contrast and a sophisticated appearance is desired.
