African Rosewood Spindle Blank 12″ x 2″ x 2″

Product Description

African Rosewood Spindle Blank 12″ x 2″ x 2″

Guibourtia coleosperma Air dried.
Not a true Rosewood (Dalbegia) but a member of the Bubinga family (but not CITES Listed) and just maybe, the most beautiful timber we have.

The colour varies from reddish brown to pink with lighter streaks, some yellow to pale straw colour. Some blanks are reminiscent of Brazilian Tulip.
It turns just like Bubinga, slightly hard but crisp and takes abrasives well.
