One of the rarest woods in the world. Stock is air dried, green by lumber standards, with the ends waxed to deter checking. Source Region: Southern Africa.

  • Pink Ivory can commonly be seen with a curly grain pattern, further enhancing its visual impact

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.

    Fragile!

    Gorgeous color, but easily shattered via drill press or lathe. Nearly had a seam ripper body turned from it. I'll probably buy again, but this is just a heads up so that other workers know what to expect. Use sharp tools and sharp bits while working with this wood.

    The first purchase
