Round logs of Tulipwood heartwood are reported to be exported from Brazil into the United States. The logs are usually under 6 feet (2 m) long, with a diameter of 2 to 8 inches (5 to 20 cm) and are reported to be sold by the pound at very high prices. Tulipwood veneers are reported to be more available from suppliers than lumber.
Tulipwood is described as heavy, hard, compact, fissile, and splintery. It is usually marketed in the form of small logs or billets, and is primarily used for decorative purposes. Tulipwood is reported to be a familiar wood to cabinetmakers and was a popular timber for the manufacture of French furniture.
