Also known as Goncalo Alves or Jobillo

This is THE most beautiful and elegant flooring from South America (Brazil). It adds such a warmth to a room. It will change the way you see floors.

Here’s the story: We had so many folks interested in 1) the hardness of Tigerwood (2,600 Janka hardness; hickory is 1,500); 2) the widths of Tigerwood; 3) the many attractive pieces of light Tigerwood. We also have had many folks that do not want the darkness of a striped dark floor project. So, recently we discovered that the Astronium Graveolens specie of wood (referred to as ‘True Tigerwood’) has certain tendencies for less stripes in some parts of Brazil than others (due to soil conditions). We had some of these lighter and harder logs run in the mill and loved the results.

These ‘Tigerwood’ logs produced a lighter (with minimal striping) floor with a beautiful variance of hues that create a very warm and inviting floor for those that love Tigerwood flooring but would rather have minimal striping.

These lots of Brazilian Koa (Tigerwood) are first quality and the REAL DEAL – REAL TIGERWOOD!
