Akana wood, a member of the Mahogany family, is a richly hued material with marbled palette ranging from deep chocolate through striking reds into soft cream, and all shades between. Growing predominantly in Cuba, its properties were valued for centuries as a construction material a well as in fine furniture and sculpture.

Throughout 16th century Havana, Spanish architecture relied heavily upon its great strength and clear grain in creating its finest buildings. In modern times as these great structures are dismantled this valuable material is called upon to serve our senses again as sculpoture in the modern cubist style popular today. The work of the artist is done by hand an dfinished with natural clear oils will mailtain its beauty for a lifetime of enjoyment.
