Decorative Doors, Tables and Wall Sculptures The list below includes the woods used by Woodsongs. Some are Primary Woods [used as the structure and/or frame of a piece; the predominant wood]. Some are Accent Woods [used in small amounts to add natural color or contrast]
The following are the most common woods used as Primary Woods (some of them require an additional cost):
Cherry - Prunus Serotina [U.S.] medium hard, reddish brown, golden luster. 
Jatoba - Hymenaea [South America] hard, reddish, brown

Red Oak - Quercus Rubra [North America] fairly hard and heavy, light golden brown.
