The heartwood of the species varies in colour, but is usually greyish-brown with streaks of chocolate brown, black or pink. The timber exhibits medium texture with a moderate natural lustre and shallow open pores. Grain is close and even, usually interlocked, and commonly wavy. This results in a wide variety of figure effects, especially attractive on quarter-sawn surfaces. Uses for Queensland walnut are mainly decorative and include plywood, veneers and musical instruments - notably guitar backs and sides.
