== Description ==

A hardwood obtained from the white peroba (''Paratecoma peroba'') and red peroba (''Aspidosperma peroba'') trees native to eastern Brazil. The red or rosa peroba produces a pink hardwood while the white peroba gives wood that is a pale olive to a dark brown in color. The wood has a straight grain and a fine uniform texture. It is strongly resistant to insect, fungi and to acids. Peroba wood is used for furniture, flooring, paneling, veneers, and carving.
