Pomelle Figured Bubinga Turning Squares/Pool Cue Blanks

Guibourtia tessmannii

Called by some woodworkers African Rosewood, Bubinga is a deep, lustrous, brownish-red color with a fine, darker striping. The figure makes the wood doubly beautiful. It is very hard and heavy and takes a glassy, smooth finish.

Due to CITES regulations, we can only ship this species to customers in the United States.

For Nearly 50 years, I have bought or inspected many thousands of tonnes of Bubinga. The figure in the log these squares are from is some of the best I have seen. One of a kind. These squares are highly figured on all four sides. The are well seasoned and stable. I bought these boards in the 1990's.

C. D. and E all have a couple small pin holes.

West African Ebony Guitar Pick Rest Blanks

Diospyros crassiflora

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. This Ebony has a marked resistance to checking that is characteristic of some of the Indian and Asian species. It has a wonderful texture and is easily carved, planed, turned, and milled. It is fairly fine-grained and takes a high polish. This Ebony usually originates in either Cameroon or Nigeria and the logs are rough hewn in the forest and oftentimes brought to the nearest road by human porters. With the disappearance of other species of black Ebony this species is fast becoming the Ebony of choice.
