Verde Lago wood (Terminalia spp.) sourced from South America, particularly in the Amazon rainforest, is a distinctive tropical hardwood. Its defining feature is its striking greenish hues, often interspersed with yellow or brown streaks, giving it a unique and vibrant aesthetic. Physically, it is a dense, hard, and durable wood, resistant to wear and decay, with a fine to medium texture that allows for excellent finishing. It is highly prized for decorative applications such as veneers, high-end furniture, flooring, and artistic creations.
