Maples And Birch

Ebony Wood Flooring

Ebony heartwood is usually jet-black, with little to no variation or visible grain. Occasionally dark brown or greyish-brown streaks may be present but is considered the darkest of all hardwoods

The grain is fine and even as well as being very smooth.

As a Tropical Hardwood, it is sourced mainly from Central and West Africa, its colour tone of near pure black makes Ebony very distinctive and due to rarity, it can only be sourced at a premium.

Maples & Birch ethically only sell Ebony that is milled from trees sourced from sustainable ethical farmed forests which are regulated by ethical environmental groups/bodies that govern the planets valuable environmental forests.

Ebony carries a heavy environmental stigmatism as the countries of source have been proved hard to govern, also known as Nigerian Ebony and Cameroon Ebony.

As a species, Ebony listed was considered as endangered ‘CITES 1’ but is now listed as ‘CITES 2’ allowing limited use under very strict licenses with a proven chain of custody. Maples & Birch strictly ensure that our suppliers adhere to this.
