Wood question

11 years ago
What type of wood is this deck made of? Looks redder than Ipe. It's beautiful.

    Mollbee - this looks a LOT like Reclaimed Dinizia. It is a tropical hardwood native to Brazil, with performance on-par with Ipe - very dense & durable, and resists decay & insects. We would love to help you with your project, and we ship throughout US & Canada. info@anthologywoods.com

    Hi mollbee,

    Given the orange color that the wood presents and the black streak patters I am very inclined to say it's Tigerwood. Tigerwood is stronger than many common wood options for deck and carries a lifespan of about 30+ years at a much lower cost than Ipe.

    Hope this helps you out!
