West African Ebony Instrument Billets

Sometimes called Gabon or Gaboon, this Ebony is sometimes jet black but oftentimes has grayish streaks that mostly disappear when finished or after the made object has been put into service.

With the disappearance of other species of black Ebony this species is fast becoming the Ebony of choice.

This is partially air dried and should be seasoned before use.
