Beschreibung

The various pages on the Internet, especially those in English, highlight that Dalbergia cearensis is a small tree that occurs in a very restricted area of Brazil. Besides, they mention that its wood is very appreciated for the manufacture of pieces of fine home furniture, as well as in marquetry, revolver handles, knife handles and floors as floors and, therefore, its financial value is very high. Its wood is used for the restoration of antique furniture and was widely used by ebanists during the reigns of Louis XIV and Louis XV, in France, and also throughout the Georgian period in England. There is reference to the traditional use of its wood in the making of classical guitars.
