In Historical Windows of New Orleans We sell only select grade. Your Brazilian Cherry floors will match from job to job and the
color variation will be in an acceptable range. Our tongue and groove profile will always engage properly and the over wood will
be minimal. We encourage you to compare our quality to the current Brazilian Cherry you are using. Consistency is the key to
avoid those expensive callbacks. We dry our Brazilian Cherry to 7 % and it is milled to NOFMA standards. It is the contractor's
choice.

Brazilian Cherry
Brazilian Cherry (Jatoba, Cuapinol, Guapinol) is the most popular hardwood flooring
import from Brazil. Known for its hardness and durability, this exotic hardwood is a
great choice in both residential and commercial installations. We offer only one superior
quality grade (clear grade), in both prefinished and unfinished formats and several
sizes.
General Characteristics: Brazilian Cherry from South America has a brownish-red color.
It darkens from a tan/salmon color to a deep, reddish brown and is 228 % as hard as
domestic Red Oak. On the Janka Hardness scale, Brazilian Cherry ranks 2820 vs. 1260
for Red Oak.
Brazilian Cherry is an extremely heavy wood; hard to cut, variable heartwood regarding
color, from light brown to pink, to reddish brown, with some intense shadowing. Thick
sapwood, notably differentiated, white slightly yellowed, uniform medium texture,
regular to irregular grain of wood, rough and of poor shine surface; imperceptible scent
and taste.
Main Applications: Hardwood Flooring - Prefinished and Unfinished.
For being very heavy and of high mechanical properties, Brazilian Cherry wood may be
used for interior finishing such as beams, rafters/joists, wooden planks, door frames,
parquet and flooring boards, in external engineering such as sleepers and double tee
junction, frames, decorating wooden sheets, furniture and others.
