Is Koa wood water-resistant?

1 Answer
Is Koa wood water-resistant?
Yes, Koa wood is water-resistant. However, it is not waterproof. This means that Koa wood can hold up to the effects of damp locations, but should not be displayed in outdoor areas completely exposed to the elements. You'll find a collection of Koa wood furniture and decorative objects on 1stDibs.
