The timber is Sapele which is a good quality mahogany from Africa. It is not in the same league as the cheap stuff used in B&Q type hardwood furniture or double glazing.

  I have a good contract with our courier and can send up to 14 off this size  slats to any mainland UK address up to Glasgow/Edinburgh for £10 . Outside this check with me before you buy. 

What follows I lifted of the internet

 
Distribution
It is found in the rain forests of West Africa from the Ivory Coast through Ghana and Nigeria to the Cameroons, and it extends eastwards to Uganda and Tanzania
The Tree
A very large tree with cylindrical bole and small or no buttresses. Grows to a height of 45m or more, and a diameter at breast height of 10m or slightly more
The Timber
The sapwood is pale yellow or whitish, the heartwood pinkish when freshly cut, darkening to typical mahogany colour of reddish-brown. Sapele is characterised by a marked and regular stripe, particularly pronounced on quarter-sawn surfaces. Occasionally mottle figure is present, It is fairly close textured, and the grain is interlocked. It is harder and heavier than African mahogany. weighing about 640 kg/m³ when dried. It has a pronounced cedar-like scent when freshly cut.

Strength
Sapele is much harder than African or American mahogany, and in resistance to indentation, bending strength, stiffness, and resistance to shock loads, is practically equal with English oak
Working Qualities Medium - Works fairly well with hand and machine tools, A cutting angle to 15° is needed to obtain a good finish. It takes screws and nails well, glues satisfactorily, stains readily, and takes an excellent polish
