Craft your projects with striking natural beauty using our Black Limba Lumber. Also known as Korina, this African hardwood features a light golden-yellow to tan background with dramatic dark brown to black streaks and figured patterns. Lightweight yet strong, Black Limba offers excellent workability and a unique exotic look—making it a favorite for guitar bodies, furniture, turning, and decorative accents.
