Top 10 Most Expensive Wood in the World 

The value all depends on where you are in the world. Teak, African mohogany, black walnut, etc are by far the most expensive in my area of the northwest US. Red cedar grows and ash grow on my property so it's cheap.

Good rundown. Suggest you write the name of the wood on the screen as it comes up

Honorable mention: Macassar Ebony; fifty years is still juvenile, two hundred years is adult, three hundred years is ripen to fell. P.s. All expensive wood are tropical, and wood is the most precious material in the entire universe

I can find purple heart for slightly more expensive than walnut.

Huon pine is absolutely beautiful. Is extremely fine grained and smells incredible. A Tasmanian icon

This is so amazing, thank you, the black tree is my favorite 🖤

Thought it was not mentioned, Red Sandalwood is the most expensive wood in the world

*So calming seeing you restore items so masterfully*

The most expensive wood belongs to aqularia tree suspected to be capable of producing resin called kynam/kyara. The wood is priced at an average $500 dollars per gram. Again, PER GRAM. Even expensive and rarer that any gymstone like pink diamond or any mineral like platinum. The biggest recorded finding of this wood is 16 kilogram which was bought in an auction for over $30 million. Agarwood which is also belong to aquilaria tree capable of producing a normal resin is priced at $15.00 per gram. Again, PER GRAM. So akilo of it would reach $15,000. This is just an average price because a good quality of agarwood can fetch up to $100,000 per kilo. Thank me later!

Where's cocobolo?

Red Sandalwood is very expensive too. Sold in Grade A, Grade B and Grade C categories. Grade A being most expensive and some others are stored for 10,15 and even 20 years.

That's an interesting video, thank you for showing us. SurvivalAustria

Thank you Very much

the truth of the matter is there's only ONE wood that really matters, and that's MORNING WOOD.

Please suggest on mohagany & miliya dubiya tree

After this video I respect Africa there gifted

Rose wood and Burma teak wood

In Thailand, teak, rosewood and maka are illegal to harvest without a permit. penalty: 1 year in prison. I was there and bought some old rosewood slabs that had been used by hill tribers for walking planks set upon muddy trails. I bought 4, each was 2" thick, 5' long and about 17" wide (variable). I used two to make a beautiful table. Up to 22 growth rings per inch. I also planted dozens of rosewood and maka seedlings in northern Thailand.

I thought curly Koa would make the list.

When speaking about the precious timbers most of the people including the authors of this video think of the woods from the rainforests in various tropical areas. In fact one of the most expensive timbers on Earth can be found in Russia, a Karelian Birch wood.

Agarwood which is basically an aquilaria tree (found in Southeast and South Asia) infected by a particular type of mold is by far the most expensive of them all. It is the only wood I know that's being sold per gram.

Brazilian rosewood has never been used as railroad sleepers!.

Purperhart is not that expensive. if you compare it to the others. In Suriname we use it sometimes for construction to. In australia they use it for electrical post.

Cocuswood (Brya ebenus) is very expensive if you get lucky enough to find it for sale.

Good content... But the narrating us clearly automated and done poorly, it would be more informative if it was easier to tell what was being said.

The burrilled Maplewood of our Pacific Northwest cost is much or more as any of these but is disappearing very quickly due to aggressive poaching. It sure is pretty

Gorgeous Fun memorable fabulous

Not sure that I can agree with many on your list. The expensive woods that have been excluded would make a top 20… I know, this isn’t an easy list to put together and it can change given market conditions which include CITIES status.

All the furniture in my house is from Dalburgia Latifolia. but I didn't know it was so expensive. 😊😊😊 thanks for Info.❤❤

Good tip on purple heart

Got a cheap Ibanez guitar and it has a purple heart wood fretboard. 4th most expensive wood in the world - for real?

I love the video, though there is some discrepancy here. You stated that Dalbergia wood is the most expensive in the world, but African Blackwood's scientific name is Dalbergia Melanoxylon (part of the dalbergia Family). And I'm also surprised that Combretum Imberbe isn't on this list as it is a tree that takes 400-800 years to mature properly before the wood can be harvested.

日本では、白檀、沈香（伽羅）、黒檀と紫檀、ブラジリアンローズウッド、ローズウッドは高価です。ブビンガ、パープルハート、ボコーテ等の評価はその次のランクになります。勿論、輸出入規制は考慮が必要ですが、それ以前からの評価に関しても同じです。ピンクアイボリーウッドは綺麗な木材ですがレア。スネークウッド、ブライヤーとか稀少材の評価は高いです。

You should have included Algum wood or better known as Narra wood today...this wood was used by King Solomon and is abundant from the land of Ophir (Philippines).
