We offer select Rosewood lumber and turning blanks ideal for high-end furniture, musical instruments, fine inlays, and decorative accents that demand elegance and sophistication. Rosewood ranges in colour from dark brown to purplish-red, often with darker streaks and a natural lustre that polishes to a mirror-like finish. Highly dense and durable, it machines well with sharp tools and holds intricate details—making it a favourite among luthiers, artisans, and woodturners. As a proudly Canadian company, Windsor Plywood specializes in rare and hard-to-find wood species, backed by expert advice and personalized service. Whether you're building a showpiece guitar or a luxury furniture item, Rosewood brings unmatched beauty, resonance, and timeless appeal to every project.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"rosewood-hardwood-lumber","title":"Rosewood Hardwood Lumber","description":"\u003cp\u003eRosewood encompasses several species of dense, richly coloured tropical hardwood prized for fine furniture, musical instruments, and decorative turning.
