Ironwood Surinam 3/4" x 3/4" x 5" Pen Blank 5-piece

Suriname Ironwood (Swartzia spp.) is native to Suriname and northern South America. The wood is a delicious chocolate brown with excellent figure and wild darker stripes. Although called Ironwood, it is not any harder than your typical exotic.

Due to the nature of wood movement, shrinkage and expansion are possible. Please measure each piece carefully before starting any project.

Wood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are alike to start with, while the same wood growing in different locales can vary greatly even though it is the exact same species.
