Description

Canalete—also known as Laurel Blanco or Salmwood—is a versatile hardwood prized for its warm golden-brown color and natural luster. The heartwood ranges from light yellowish to golden brown, often accented with darker streaks, and the grain is generally straight with a uniform texture. Highly dimensionally stable and easy to work, Canalete machines smoothly with hand or power tools, and it glues, stains, and finishes exceptionally well. Its combination of beauty, reliability, and ease of use makes it a favorite choice for turning projects, furniture, veneer, and fine millwork. Not listed in the CITES Appendices, Canalete is a sustainable option for woodworkers seeking quality and character.
