Angélique, also known as Guyana Teak or Basralocus, is one of the most emblematic and widely used wood species in Guyana.
Its dense, durable, and homogeneous wood, with a beautiful golden-brown hue, is prized in both construction and precision craftsmanship.

Traditionally, it is used in interior and exterior joinery, for flooring, decking, and urban landscaping due to its high resistance.
In crafts and design, Angélique lends itself to multiple creations: knife handles, turned objects, jewelry, furniture, marquetry, and also lutherie for making guitar fingerboards, tops, and backs.

Versatile, aesthetic, and reliable, Angélique is an essential wood species for both structural and decorative uses.
