I have used that same color and grain on several stools, I just called it mahogany.

 

Hey Jim...

I'd definitely go with a mahogany... perhaps African, possibly Cuban..

if it is cuban.. ouuuuuuuuuuuuu weeee!! you got a gloat on your hands!!

These were some of the pieces he's had for a very long time, so he couldn't remember either but it has a firey-coppery look to it. I'm just *imagining* it with the grain popped!!

 

Jim,
If you want to see what the grain will look like, wipe some naptha on it. You will get a very good look at what it will look like with finish. The naptha will evaporate off in minutes leaving no residue.

 

Good thought, Tim...

 

could it be Sapele I have used lot's of this wood It look's like mahogany It is heavy and finished it Look's good

 

Thanks, Del!
