Camphor Burl
(Cinnamomum sp.)

click on photo for back view

This rare burl is from S.E. Asia and is seldom seen on the world market. It is fine-grained and varies in color from a light reddish-brown to almost scarlet. It is easy to work and has a very pungent, spicy scent. For a burl it is remarkably stable. Green to partially air-dried. These slabs are log run and have some minor defects. Much good, sound wood.

Assorted South American Hardwoods

click on photo for close-up

We have nine pallets of these Guyana hardwood shorts. The majority seem to be Beefwood (Manilkara bidentata) but I have found Shibadan (Aspidosperma album), Tatabu (Diplotropis purpurea), and Jatoba (Hymenaea courbaril) mixed in. These species are all hard and heavy. The pieces range in size from 5 to 6” wide and 4 to 12” long. The thickness is approximately an inch. Excellent for small boxes, pens, segmented bowls, etc. Kiln-dried.

#SP366

By the pallet (approx. size 30 x 36 x 42”) $300.00. Shipped by truck as the weight is over 1,000 lbs.
Smaller quantities available at $1.00/lb. 20 lb. Minimum.

Brazilian Pernambuco
(Guilandina echinata)

Also called Ibirapitanga and Pau Brazil, this once important dyewood gave origin to the name of Brazil.The color of the heartwood is yellowish-brown to orange and is fine-grained, hard, and heavy. It is highly esteemed for violin bows and these blanks were cut for that purpose. However they were found to have defects such as pin knots, wild grain, cracks, that precluded their use for bows. The pieces vary in size 3/8-3/4” x 1 ¼-5” x 28-48” and come rough and unplaned.

Lot of 10 lbs. $40.00
