Bocote is a type of hardwood that comes from the Cordia genus of flowering trees, specifically Cordia spp. It is native to Central and South America, with Mexico being a primary source of bocote wood. Bocote wood is highly regarded for its distinct appearance and grain patterns. It typically has a medium to dark brown color with streaks of black or dark brown running through it. These streaks create a striking contrast and give bocote its unique and eye-catching appearance. Bocote wood can also exhibit a variety of other colors, including yellow, orange, and greenish hues. One of the most notable features of bocote wood is its grain pattern. It often has a dramatic figure, such as swirls, waves, or even "eyes." This figure adds depth and character to the wood, making it highly sought after for decorative and aesthetic purposes. Bocote wood is known for its durability and strength. It has a high natural oil content, which contributes to its resistance to decay and insect infestation.
