African Blackwood
Dalbergia melanoxylon
The heartwood is purplish to brownish-black with dark gray streaks giving an overall impression of being black. Lustrous with an attractive inner chatoyance. Very hard, heavy, close-grained, and virtually free from pores. Its stability and lovely tonal qualities make it an excellent instrument wood.
This has some defects but still has a lot of usable material.
Due to CITES regulations, we can only ship this species to customers in the United States.
