Ebony is the new trendy material for furniture design

For the last year ebony appears to be the new trendy material in furniture design - more and more companies offer kitchens, tables, chairs and cupboards

either in natural ebony veneer or its laminate immitation. Elegant and interesting this is a wood we have appreciated for many years, but now it has come to replace the overused wenge.

I expect this trend to continue and ebony to become one of the most popular materials in interior design and home decoration because of its versatility.

Here is an elegant example:

Enjoy architect Giorgio Soressi's Jazz buffet - its unique vision is achieved by the use of "a syncopated composition of striated ebony veneer", as Interior Design describes it.
