![Caribbean Rosewood (Chechen)](chechen_120square.jpg) |
Chechen shares the variegated color and swirling grain patterns of the world's most exotic and expensive woods. Unlike most true Rosewoods, it is not an endangered specie. Twice as hard as Red Oak, Chechen is both beautiful and durable.

![Caribbean Cherry (Machiche)](machiche_120square_new.jpg) |
We call it "cherry" to suggest the color range of its domestic counterpart, but that is where the comparison ends. Machiche is three times harder than domestic Cherry, and even harder than Brazilian Cherry.

![Hard Maple](maple_120square.jpg) |
You can search the whole world for a light blonde wood that outperforms Maple for flooring, but you won't find one. Hard Maple is the hardest widely used domestic wood for flooring, 10% harder than Red Oak.

Oak is the most widely used wood for flooring in America, but most engineered oak floors look like plywood. We offer White Oak in the distinctive tailored look that can only be achieved by cutting across the grain.

Santos Mahogany is the hardest of all the Mahogany-type woods. Salmon colored overtones compliment its natural red and brown color. Santos Mahogany has become one of the most popular imported woods for flooring.

Compared to domestic Walnut, T'zalam is naturally more uniform in color and is twice as hard. For a rich light-to-chocolate brown color, T'zalam is durable and cost-effective.
