Spanish Cedar (Cedrela Odorata) is light reddish brown to dark brown in color. The grain is straight or shallowly interlocked with a moderately coarse texture similar to that of mahogany. Machines and carves well with hand and power tools. Strong yet lightweight. Spanish cedar is really known for its very distinctive fragrance, and thus as the wood of choice for lining humidors, cigar boxes and cigar wrappers. Applications for the wood also include craft projects, high-end cabinetry and furniture, clothing chests, interior joinery, patterns, lead pencils, boat building, canoe decks and musical instrument parts.

Not unlike the masked Lone Ranger and his Spanish counterpart Zorro, there are two tree species from different geographic origins that hide their real identity. What they share is a desirable fragrance.

    Would buy and reccomend to anyone

    This is the first time I've ever used this website and it was just what I needed. I used the piece of Spanish Cedar to repair a travel humidor for my cousin and it worked out perfectly. Except for the obvious difference in wood color due to the age of the original remaining pieces, it turned out very nicely.

    Perfect for humidors, great product.

    Great experience with woodcraft would definetly not hesitate to purchase from again, was exactly what I was looking for and came in perfect size with very little left over. The best place to purchase exotic woods for those special projects.

    perfect, thanks!

    Just a simple piece of Spanish Cedar which I cut into dividers for my humidor. The wood was perfect no knots, blemishes or other issues. [...] for a reasonable price, what more could I ask for.

    Nice tone and grain pattern

    Piece was specifically selected for making Christmas ornaments because of the wood tone and gain.
