Mango wood has long been popular with furniture makers and craftsmen thanks to its attractive and unusual grain. In addition, thanks to the unique quality of the wood, it will retain it’s high lustre for many years, whilst it is also ideal for waxing or staining. Lastly, like many other types of wood, mango wood will gradually darken over time to develop darker shades of brown, reminiscent to teak.

Furthermore, mango furniture is a sustainable choice as it is cultivated as a fruit tree. Mango trees reach maturity relatively quickly - after around 15 years - in comparison to other types of hardwood. Once a tree has matured it will reduce or stop altogether the amount of fruit it produces. This means that mango farmers will replace their trees on a regular basis, therefore creating a sustainable system of plantation followed by harvest, with only older, less productive trees being harvested for wood. 

Thanks to its natural beauty, durability and sustainability, solid mango wood is a sought after material for many types of furniture including dining room tables, side tables, bed frames, chairs and more. Mango is easy to care for, requiring only an occasional polish to keep it in good condition and because it is relatively easy to work with, it’s possible for craftsmen to create intricately carved designs in the ‘soft’ surface. 

Another little known advantage of mango wood is that it naturally possess high water repellency. As such this makes it ideal for creating garden furniture, bathroom storage furniture and kitchen accessories.
