Cocobolo is known for its wide array of colors, such as yellow, orange, red, and different shades of brown with splashes of black or purple. It is generally easy to work with and can produce visually appealing turned projects when finished. This wood is often used for veneer, furniture, cabinetry, boatbuilding, and small specialty items. With its stunning colors and ease of turning, Cocobolo is highly sought after, but its high oil content makes it challenging to glue. However, it is still a top choice for creating standout projects on the lathe.
