8/4 Zebrawood is a bold and visually striking African hardwood known for its unmistakable striped appearance and distinctive natural character. Its heartwood typically features a pale golden-yellow to light brown background with contrasting dark brown to nearly black streaks. The additional thickness of 8/4 stock makes it especially well suited for substantial furniture components, thick tabletops, turning projects, and specialty applications where Zebrawood's dramatic grain can take center stage.
