Sapele is a great alternative for Genuine Mahogany!
Sapele gets used for all types of woodworking including furniture, cabinet making, instrument making, and woodturning. This rot resistant wood is also a great choice for exterior applications. When finishing Sapele, you may want to consider a durable hardwax-oil finish such as Osmo Polyx-Oil. An oil finish would especially accentuate figured Sapele which we are lucky to source on occasion.

S4S Ribbon Striped Sapele Lumber
I ordered the 20 board feet pack of sapele for two nightstands I wanted to build. The sapele was shipped and delivered within a week. The quality of the boards was top notch, and the price per board foot was very reasonable. I will be buying from KJP again for my next project.
Always enjoy getting my orders from KJP. This time I ordered a little bit more of a selection and I was not disappointed!
I received the Sapele to construct a Greene&Greene plant stand. The boards were of a dazzling ribbon figure, beautiful!
Still haven't received the order.

Ribbon striped sapele
The sapele boards I receive from KJP are always excellent quality. Sapele is a wonderful hardwood and affordable as well. Always great doing business with KJP. Shipping is fast and affordable.
Very satisfied
I bought 1 piece (thin) of Ribbon Striped Sapele, 1 piece of Bloodwood, and 2 pieces of Mahogany. Excellent grain pattern on the Sapele - looked like it was handpicked, and I got the best. The Bloodwood - absolutely gorgeous colouring. The Mahogany is also very good - straight, good grain, will make nice gifts for friends and relatives. I am very pleased with the products and people at KJP.
Wood is as advertised. S4S and ready to use. Shipped quickly.
8/4 Ribbon Striped Sapele Project Board
It’s still early to comment. I love the look, but will be using soon
The lumber Sapele was of great quality, to say I’m very happy with my purchase.
I bought one 48” ribbon striped sapele board. I made a charcuterie board and four 4” coasters out of it and they turned out great. My only reason for the four stars is the board wasn’t straight, it was close, but not enough. I had to do a little work myself. In any case, it was great and I’ve just ordered 11 maple boards for my next project.
