Angelim – Pedra –(Hymenolobium Petraeum)<\/i><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Also known as Angel\u2019s Heart, Para Angelim, and sometimes only, Pedra. Angelim Pedra is a medium instability, and very dense. It is not very difficult to work with. It has a deep reddish brown color and is available usually as flooring. It is picking up some attention in the decking market as well. Due to it\u2019s stability and durability this wood could provide another option in lieu of woods such as Massaranduba or Jatoba. Available as FSC Certified and non-FSC certified as well as kiln-dried (KD). We have Angelim Pedra available in decking, flooring, dimensional lumber, E4E, S4S, RS (Rough Sawn), deck tiles, and table slabs.<\/div>\n
