Padauk Neck Laminate – 37″x2″x10mm

Description Padauk (Pterocarpus spp.) is a vibrant and durable hardwood native to Africa and Asia, prized for its striking reddish-orange to deep crimson colour that can deepen to a rich, dark brown over time. Known for its straight to interlocked grain and medium to coarse texture, Padauk is both strong and stable, making it a popular choice for furniture, flooring, cabinetry, and decorative accents. This hardwood is relatively easy to work with, taking cuts and finishes well, and it polishes beautifully to highlight its vivid coloration and unique grain. Padauk is also highly resistant to wear, decay, and insect damage, which enhances its versatility for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its bold colour and excellent workability make it a favourite among woodworkers for musical instruments, turned items, and intricate carvings. With its combination of beauty, durability, and affordability, Padauk is a standout material for both practical and artistic woodworking projects.
