Mahogany Rocking Horse Properties
Mahogany has a straight, tight, interlocking grain. Colour varies
from reddish brown to light brown.
Mahogany accepts a broad range of finishes making it ideal for
our mahogany rocking horse projects.
Mahogany Rocking Horses Availability
Sources of high quality mahogany from eco friendly ethical suppliers
may vary.
In the case where eco-friendly supplies of mahogany are limited,
we can offer Andiroba and American cedar as replacement. These woods
look much like mahogany but are a little lighter in colour, however
like all wood they darken with age.
Mahogany Rocking Horses and The Environment
Mahogany is an exotic hardwood, and some species of mahogany are
endangered in some parts of the world.
We therefor go to great lengths to ensure that
the wood supply for our mahogany rocking horses comes from reclaimed
sources or Forrests
Forever and/or FSC
(Forest Stewardsip Council) certified eco-friendly ethical suppliers.
For more details of our ethical policy, please see the quality
care and ethics page.
